pickGaspard Winckler is a forger trying to create a masterpiece, one true work of art. Interesting to read after The Stranger and El Tunel; all centre on the psyche of a murderer and roughly contemporaneous. I liked the contrast between the stream-of-consciousness writing played against an interview format in the second half. A short story that raises questions about authenticity and creativity, and Perec‘s games invite psychoanalytic critique. 6/10
