On a crowded bus at midday, Raymond Queneau observes one man accusing another of jostling him deliberately. When a seat is vacated, the first man appropriates it. Later, in another part of town, Queneau sees the man being advised by a friend to sew a new button on his overcoat.
Exercises in Style ― Queneau’s experimental masterpiece and a hallmark book of the Oulipo literary group ― retells this unexceptional tale ninety-nine times, employing the sonnet and the alexandrine, onomatopoeia and Cockney. An “Abusive” chapter heartily deplores the events; “Opera English” lends them grandeur. Queneau once said that of all his books, this was the one he most wished to see translated. He offered Barbara Wright his “heartiest congratulations,” adding: “I have always thought that nothing is untranslatable.Here is new proof.”
To celebrate the 65th anniversary of the 1947 French publication of Exercises de Style, New Directions has asked several writers to contribute new exercises as a tribute. Tantalizing examples include Jonathan Lethem’s “Cyberpunk,” Harry Mathew’s “Phonetic Eros,” and Frederic Tuten’s “Beatnik” exercises. This edition also retains Barbara Wright’s original introduction and reminiscence of working on this book ― a translation that in 2008 was ranked first on the Author’s Society’s list of “The 50 Outstanding Translations of the Last 50 Years.”

Raymond Queneau (1903-1976) is acknowledged as one of the most influential of modern French writers, having helped determine the shape of twentieth-century French literature, especially in his role with the Oulipo, a group of authors that includes Italo Calvino, Georges Perec, and Harry Mathews, among others.
Barbara Wright has translated several Raymond Queneau novels; indeed, as John Updike wrote in The New Yorker, she "has waltzed around the floor with the Master so many times by now that she follows his quirky French as if the steps were in English." She has also translated works by Alain Robbe-Grillet, Robert Pinget, Nathalie Sarraute, and Marguerite Duras. She lives in London.

文学评论家贡巴尼翁将20世纪的法国文学描绘成一个又一个的“波”:普鲁斯特之波,塞利纳之波,超现实主义之波,萨特之波,新小说之波……创立于1960而活跃至今的乌力波是那一圈圈文学之波外的另一个“波”,它们激荡起的涟漪彼此交融,核心却不重叠。 雷蒙·格诺(Raymond Quen... (展开)写作的swing dance

没想到《风格练习》这么短,对照法文版一个多小时就读完了。 作者此时在我眼中像是一个老顽童一样,俏皮地摆弄着自己的打字机,琢磨着今天要如何整活。他提出了很多种不同的叙述方式,对于人物形象塑造很有启发,而且也是一种写作风格的signature。尤其他的“辱骂”篇,不知为... (展开)《风格练习》:我没有写作的习惯

感觉致敬部分比原作精彩,在AI泛滥之后,总想读到超出单纯风格转换的东西。
