More about the book

Láadan, a feminist constructed language created by Suzannne Jill Elgin, explores the influence of language on thought, challenging the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. Merging earlier material with new vocabulary, this book highlights how Láadan's unique morphemes encourage speakers to articulate their perceptions and intentions, fostering clarity and reducing misunderstandings. By embodying women's perspectives, the language aims to shape culture and counteract issues like "fake news." Proceeds support the Science Fiction Poetry Association, continuing Elgin's legacy.
