La disparition
Book • 1969
La Disparition, translated as A Void in English, is a lipogrammatic novel written by Georges Perec in 1969.
The book is a remarkable example of the Oulipo movement, which seeks to expand literary possibilities through formal constraints.
Perec's novel avoids the use of the letter E, a challenge that significantly limits the vocabulary available.
This constraint reflects the broader themes of the book, including loss, absence, and the Holocaust, which had a profound impact on Perec's life.
The novel is a philosophical and literary exploration of the power of language and the human experience of loss and survival.
