DESCRIPTION   DARK HORSEY SAYS- The kabala & directory & showcase - of the 'ways' & works of the Oulip. Fun thru constraint. The literary equivalents of chess, of Twister! & so much more.A group based in France of mainly French & European writers & thinkers aconcerned with writing. To join you have to invent a new form with strict rules. The intention is to make these forms available to writers everywhere & to reorientate writing away from purely personal expression - towards the pleasures of 'restrictive form'- eg Perec's novel without the letter 'e'. Hard to do, great to read. Co-editor Harry Mathews is one of the Ou Li Po masters (Includes, Georges Perec, Calvino, Raymond Queneau & others).
