Georges Perec contempla las muchas maneras en que ocupamos el espacio que nos rodea, describe los elementos comunes con los que estamos familiarizados de una manera sorprendente y engorrosa, mientras relata su psicoanálisis, permaneciendo reticente sobre sus sentimientos o representando el París de su infancia sin dejar rastros de sentimentalismo. Entretanto, Nos damos cuenta de que estamos en presencia de un notable escritor virtuoso.

Excerpts

Me gustaría que hubiera lugares estables, inmóviles, intangibles, intocados y casi intocables, inmutables, arraigados; lugares que fueran referencias, puntos de partida, principios: mi país natal, la cuna de mi familia, la casa donde habría nacido, el árbol que habría visto crecer (que mi padre habría plantado el día de mi nacimiento), el desván de mi infancia lleno de recuerdos intactos... Tales lugares no existen, y como no existen el espacio se vuelve pregunta, deja de ser evidencia, deja de estar incorporado, deja de estar apropiado. El espacio es una duda: continuamente necesito marcarlo, designarlo; nunca es mío, nunca me es dado, tengo que conquistarlo.
