"Face with Tears of Joy" by Keith Houston is a lively exploration of the world's newest language—emoji. The book traces emoji's origins in 1990s Japan, its rapid proliferation across the West in the 2000s, and examines its expanding vocabulary. Through a blend of tech and pop culture history, Houston delves into the significance and evolution of this iconic form of communication.
