Sinopsis
This linguistic conjuring trick -a full-length novel in which the letter 'e' is not used -is a dazzling mixture of parody and wordplay, further proof of Perec's status as the most singular writer France has produced in the last fifty years. It is also a masterpiece of Gothic fiction.

A handsome, nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing a couple of very minor, unobtrusive imperfections. Bright and clean. Corners sharp. Virtually "As New". NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo (8.4 x 5.35 x 0.8 inches). Translated by Gilbert Adair. Black and Rust-Red design to the panels on a white background field. Crossed out "E" design at the front panel. Trade Paperback. As his country is torn apart by social and political anarchy, Anton Vowl, a chronic insomniac, disappears. Ransacking his Paris flat, a group of his faithful companions trawl through his diary for any indication, for any faint hint, as to his location. Perec lost his mother in the Holocaust. A Void is precisely about the difficulty of speaking in the absence of the most necessary thing. Not merely an intellectual tour de force -- although certainly that -- but one of the most subtle things ever written on grief. The book has a killer, loopy, murder mystery plot, and at the same time manages to be a deeply felt meditation on absence and the way absences constitute our lives. Lots in common with Derrida, etc. The translation is a work of genius/insanity. I can't imagine a better job being done. As much a masterpiece of translation as a novel, A Void contains not one single letter e anywhere in the main body of the text. This clever and unusual novel is full of plots and sub-plots, of trails in pursuit of trails and linguistic conjuring tricks; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; xi, 284 pages. Nº de ref. del artículo: 58399
