I was amazed to see that today's word was lipogram. Last week I was in Paris and was invited to a friend's for dinner. One of the other people at the dinner party was the person who translated La Disparition into Russian! What an achievement. And he is writing his doctoral thesis on literature with imposed constraints. He also said that there are actually 3 translations of La Disparition into English. It would be interesting to compare them. Maybe someone will rise to the challenge of translating it into Linear B!
