Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig: Hardcover; 288 pages / English

The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows defines new words for emotions that we all feel but don't have the language to express.  By turns poignant, relatable, and mind-bending, the definitions include whimsical etymologies drawn from languages around the world, interspersed with otherworldly collages and lyrical essays that explore forgotten corners of the human condition.  A truly original book for anyone who enjoys a shift in perspective, pondering the ineffable feelings that make up our lives, which have far more in common than we think.
