Title: Dense and beautiful, with an unfortunate title
Review: Georges Perec loved language, and it shows. _Life_ is clearlya labor of love.There are times when maybe the descriptions ramble, and youmay well find yourself into the fifth page of a descriptionof some piece of furniture, but if you don't keep track, you'llnever notice.This is a difficult book to describe simply because it is sodense. At one level, it's a logic game; at another, it's anexercise in linguistics; at another, it's simply poetry.The translator, too, deserves kudos. Although I haven't readthe original, the translation, I suspect, has remained faithfulto the spirit of the book.Please read this book.
