Women and Words: Pip Williams in Conversation

Pip Williams’ debut novel The Dictionary of Lost Words captivated Australian readers during lockdown and has also attracted a legion of international fans.

We are thrilled Pip’s visit coincides with the launch of her highly anticipated second book, The Bookbinder of Jericho. Set in early 20th-century Oxford, cracks appear in the normal order of things when World War I is declared. Her new book tells the story of that change from the perspective of a young woman, Peggy, who works in the bindery of the Oxford University Press. 

In this wide-ranging discussion, Pip will explore language, censorship and women’s access to knowledge.

Hosted by Ailsa Piper.
