So long, I can't even remember why it was important to me at the time! I loved that piece.<BR/><BR/>I do wish you knew the difference (beef-erance) between a short story and a bad idea.

So you're all conscious at the letter level and then you had to re-build the words and it was kindergarten all over again. But I remember the protagonist had an uneasy sense that something was missing. Yeah. The fucking E, Sherlock!<BR/><BR/>Perec also smoked too much.

The English translation was called A Void. I've wanted to read it but have never seen a copy, and it strikes as the kind of thing that you find all serendipitious-like. Ordering it would kill the magic.<BR/><BR/>Perec also wrote a novel called Les Revenents, in which the only vowel used was 'e'.<BR/><BR/>There's an issue of Granta Magazine on food which features Perec's summary of everything he ever ate in his life.
