“Each entry describes someone in peril, the nature of the peril generated by the word of the day”
That’s all I need to say really about the wonderful Dictionary of Peril, the invention of Laura Heron. I met Laura whilst compering the Warwick Words Flash Slam. She performed the utterly marvellous “The Peril of the Iamb” which, whilst as funny as it sounds, is also deeply moving and not a little disturbing. Anyway, go and dip your toes in a multifariety of lexicographical perils.
