Day Twelve: explore a book that is in a language you don't speak.
This can be amazing. I found a big hardbound, metal-edged German ladies' 'house-arts' book today. The index [which apparently is in the front, where we usually put contentses] contains a surprising amount of a] English and b] German that looks just like English. Thanks to this, I just realised that my new book is chiefly concerned with women's reproductive health. I didn't know things like that were published way back in 1880.
