LaXayEm, tIlXEm,
"Talking Rain" is a novel by Linda French, subtitled 'a Professor
Teodora Morelli mystery', published this year by Avon Books. Check this
out: The premise is that our heroine is trying to preserve a "lost"
language. Can you guess which one? Hint: It begins with ChInUk and ends
with Wawa. There are sections in the text that are actually in the
Jargon. It's an inexpensive paperback, and it might be a fun read in your
spare time. My dad (who found it at the library) is enjoying it. Thanks,
Dad.
