PRAISE FOR THE DICTIONARY OF OBSCURE SORROWS AND JOHN KOENIG "Creates beautiful new words that we need but do not yet have." --John Green, New York Times bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars "These aren't real words, but if crysalism and ellipsism don't perfectly sound like their meanings, I don't know what other words would." --George Takei "BRILLIANT" -- New York Magazine "Beautiful...amazing." -- Huffington Post "Its existence feels almost otherworldly, like spells from the mind of J.K. Rowling." -- Upworthy "Perfect." -- BuzzFeed "Expressed beautifully." -- Washington Post "If you've been waiting for your daily dose of beautiful, The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is going to do the trick for you. The site is a collection of madeup words that perfectly describe some of the most profound feelings human beings are capable of experiencing; words that for whatever reason have not yet been defined by any one term. You may find yourself nodding your head in a meditative state of quiet relation and subtle reverence the longer you scroll down the page. In short, this man's mind is beautiful." -- Bustle

    Compelling and informative

    I discovered this book at my local library and liked it so much I bought it for a friend. It is so interesting to learn new words and phrases. I was happy to be able to purchase this hardback exciting book on e-bay.
