Nws from the world of Litratur

Word comes of the latest attempt at publishing a book-length lipogram (a lipogram is an extended piece of writing that purposely omits one or more letters).
Soffi Stiassni will be rewriting Tao Lin’s Eeeee Eee Eeee using Georges Perec’s sans ‘e’ method derived in A Void.
The revised title is either yet to be released or is now "—– — —-."

Meanwhile I am delighted to notice that the Wikipedia entry for Gadsby is similarly lipogrammatic -- much to the consternation of some of the folks chiming in on the discussion page.
