La Disparition - A Void Book without E
La Disparition (The Disappearance) is a 300-page lipo-grammatic novel by French author Georges Perec - a kind of book that consists of constrained writing or a word game.
There is absolutely no mention of ‘e’ throughout all 300 pages, except the author’s name of course. Even the most common word of the French language, ‘le’ (which means the), makes no appearance at all. La Disparition was later translated into English by Gilbert Adair, with the title A Void.
