The cleverest man who ever died, bit doesnt make you feel stupid- only more aware of the things and words around you. A great accompanyment to "A Void" and "Life..." and a reasonable introduction to Oulipo.

Neither Amazon nor any of its customers or visitors have got round to reviewing this. Bah.

This was a course book recommended for me to read and is a bit obscure. I need to read it again, maybe even a few times. As with all French philosophers, it is not easy to get into. So it is probably not a mediocre 3 star rating at all, that's just where I am with it at the moment, so I will keep you all updated if I read it again
