Something for everyone, plenty for none
3 stars
As a survey of trivia on Europe's languages, this has morsels to whet most any appetite. But the bites are quite small, and it's hard to imagine anyone being interested in everything on offer. Such is the nature of a survey with dozens of short chapters, many of which are necessarily on more obscure topics.
Generally entertaining, but I skipped through a fair bit of it. It did bring to mind the obscure things I'd always wondered about, such as Romansh (did I even spell that right?).
