Details: Esme comes from a world of words. She spends her youth in the Scriptorium, an Oxford garden shed where her father and a team of dedicated lexicographers are gathering words for the first Oxford English Dictionary. A slip of paper with the term bondmaid flutters beneath the table one day. She saves the slip and she begins to gather other words that the dictionary men have rejected or disregarded.
