A review by jackflagg
Species of Spaces and Other Pieces by Georges Perec

4.0

The master of the mundane, the infraordinary, la quotidienne. Before Seinfeld's show about nothing, there was Perec's work about nothing, the common things we pass by everyday and don't pay attention to, the spaces and "species" we're surrounded by and don't think about. It's a joyous journey to read Perec precisely because he opens your eyes to the trees you pass and treat as being only a forest.
