Nebulae are those star nurseries familiar through the fabulous Hubble images like the one above. Languages are also born – indeed every language is reborn, quite literally in the nursery.

On our book’s cover stands a small church. Coloured in a blue that suggests the haze of a summer’s day, it is set against a yellow landscape dotted with vines.
