Graham Downs reviewed Word Drops by Paul Anthony Jones
Review of 'Word Drops' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This was amazing! I learnt so much from this book, and it’s so my style. I love the word association, where one definition leads into the next. It reminds me of one of my favourite South African comedians, Alan Committie, who, during his performances, does this thing where he writes a random word on a flip chart, then associates that word with another, then associates THAT word with another, and so on, and so on, until twenty or thirty words later, he comes back to the first word. I’m definitely going to recommend it to him; I think he would get a kick out of it.
There really isn’t anything more to say about this book. It’s right up my street, my cup of tea, whatever other metaphors you want to use. If you’re a logophile like me (a word I learnt from this book), you’ll love it.
