Softcover. Condition: Gut. 1. Auflage. Make Now Press of Los Angeles and Atlas Press of London released a revised and updated edition of the Oulipo Compendium in November 2005 in a limited edition print run of 1,000 copies to be released from Los Angeles and 1,000 copies to be released from London. The Oulipo Compendium is a dictionary of mathematical constraints used in the composition of literature. The Oulipo's foremost concern has been to devise formal constraints and compose a few examples of each for the express purpose of pointing to the potential these formalisms create. Oulipian constraints have been responsible for some of the most original works of literature ever produced. Cover slightly creased, 33 pages, 21 x 23 cm, 763 g.
Soft cover. Condition: Very good. No jacket. Revised and updated edition. Cover is in excellent condition, with no visible flaws apart from minor handling wear. Binding is tight and inside is clean and unmarked.
