.......called One Human Minute - both are books of reviews of nonexistent books,
of which my
favourite is Gruppenfuhrer Louis XVI in A Perfect Vacuum, which would make a

Klaus Kinski is
no longer with us to play Taudlitz.

a happy coincidence - the main film festival of the year is on at present, and
I'm going to see "My Best Fiend" tonight, Herzog's doco about Klaus Kinski -
I'll let you know if anything remarkable appears.

peter (another perec fan) (come to think of it, the mad grinning photo of Perec
on the back of Life A User's Manual does make him look as if he is/was related
to Kinski - you know, manic).
