Roy Blount Jr.’s Alphabet Juice celebrates “the juju of language,” the sonic and kinetic energies of words, and offers an exploration of our language that is more “over the counter” than ordinary. Incorporating sources as venerable as the Oxford English Dictionary and as hip as UrbanDictionary.com, Alphabet Juice provides a unique view of our complex and ever-changing language.
Also: $2 off regular admission ($12) to the museum and 10% off items in the Gift Shop |
