A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms – in short, a sum of human relations, which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins.”

    Georges Perec

Is the aleph, that place in Borges from which the entire world is visible simultaneously, anything other than an alphabet?”
    Georges Perec, Species of Spaces and Other Pieces
