Yeah I think I've tried to sell you on him before.Nah, we've discussed him before though. I think Woops mentioned him too. That Tlooth book.
At a dinner party hosted by a wealthy New Yorker, a guest receives a gold adze, the coveted prize in a worm race.
When the man dies the next day (that's the host not the guest), he bequeaths, according to a stipulation in his will, the bulk of his fortune to the adze's possessor, provided he answer three mysterious questions relating to the artifact's history. In his search the owner encounters a menagerie of eccentric personalities: an ancient revolutionary in a Parisian prison, a ludicrous pair of gibberish-speaking brothers, and customs officials who spend their time reading contraband materials. He soon finds himself immersed in the centuries-long history of a persecuted religious sect and in an odyssey that begins in a forgotten fog-covered town in Scotland and ends on the ocean floor off the cost of an uncharted French island. A wild goose chase through a remarkably unusual world, The Conversions invites both reader and protagonist to participate in a quest for answers to an elusive game.
It's when you flip a table, I'm confused why you're confusedWhat's a table flip? What's this thing that everyone knows about and I don't?
Flipping Tables (written as: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻) is a text-based emoticon depicting a person flipping a table out of rage. Primarily used by East Asian internet users to express rage, the emoticon became popular among Western internet users following its introduction through internationally popular online games.
Yeah I read that a while back, enjoyed it. I think it's the first of a planned trilogy? I'm keeping an eye on him.Tony White’s Fountain the Forest is a good recent example of using constraints to great effect. And of course, Their Brilliant Careers by an Australian Oulipo practitioner has a lot of fun with it all too.
