About

"In Reading Games, Kimberly Bohman-Kalaja guides us through an exploration of a neglected literary genre, the Play-Text. Focusing on the works of Flann O'Brien, Samuel Beckett, and Georges Perec, Bohman-Kalaja's book provides insightful analysis of game and play theories, as well as a new perspective on the world of experimental fiction - discovering, step by step, the innovative strategies of those authors who play reading games."--BOOK JACKET.
