In A Dirty Story as You Like It, the reader chooses from multiple plots, navigates the course to a satisfying climax, or changes direction whenever the urge strikes. In this wickedly clever (and very funny) variation, Kim Vodicka follows in Queneau’s hallowed footsteps with a do-it-yourself text that’s guaranteed to satisfy all-comers. Oulipo’s interactive concept of “tree literature” was first implemented by Raymond Queneau in his short story “Un conte à votre façon” ( A Story as You Like It). We’re pleased to present the 14th title in our Pocket Erotica series - a must-have edition for fans of Oulipo and innovative literature. Accessible and highly enjoyable prose complements the flow of images.” Included are new iterations and genres in the continuum such as asemics, digital collage, neo-concrete and visual poetry as well as typographical innovations rooted in Lettrism.

TYPO hits the top of the charts on Amazon RAVE REVIEW Visually fun to look at and filled with interesting historical factoids about printing.
