    <body><![CDATA[This book is great.  It's basically a collection of Perec's non-fictional works, the longest of which is the piece &quot;Species of Spaces,&quot; which is about a hundred pages.  The remainder of the book is twenty or so short pieces, some of which really dazzle in their own quirky way.
