Reissue, with additions, of Wright's 1981 translation of the 1st edition (1947) of Exercices de style.

[an] unexceptional tale ninety-nine times, employing the sonnet and the alexandrine, onomatopoeia, and Cockney [etc.] ... To celebrate the 65th anniversary of the 1947 French publication of Exercises de Style, New Directions has asked several writers to contribute new exercises ... This edition also retains Barbara Wright's original introduction and reminiscence of working on this book"--Publisher's note.
