A mindbending novel from the author of Life A Users ManualA Void is a great linguistic adventure and a metaphysical whodunit, chockfull of plots and subplots, of trails in pursuit of trails, all of displays Georges Perecs virtuosity as a verbal magician. It is also an outrageous verbal stunt: a 300page novel that never once employs the letter E.The year is 1968, and as France is torn apart by social and political anarchy, the noted eccentric and insomniac Anton Vowl goes missing. Ransacking his Paris flat, his best friends scour his diary for clues to his whereabouts. At first glance these pages reveal nothing but Vowls penchant for word games, especially for lipograms, compositions in which the use of a particular letter is suppressed. But as the friends work out Vowls verbal puzzles, and as they investigate various leads discovered among the entries, they too disappear, one by one by one, and under the most mysterious circumstances . . .A book that only Georges Perec could have conceived, Time magazine called A Void, ...an absurdist nirvana of humor, pathos, and loss.
