From the supplier: One of author Raymond Queneau's translators recounts her chance beginning and subsequent work depicting in English "The Trojan Horse" and other seemingly untranslatable work of Queneau's including "Les Exercices de style" and "Zazie dans le metro." By working as a translator for Queneau's work, she comes to admire the true nature of the work.

From the supplier: Raymond Queneau's "Saint Glinglin" evokes contrasting reactions from readers. The novel is either accepted as one of Queneau's masterpieces or denounced as strange and too symbolic. Queneau uses a variety of technical and stylistic devices to explore multiple themes. He appears to integrate poetics, dramatic arts and contemporary techniques while exploring the disciplines of psychoanalysis, ethnology, philosophy of history and science fiction.
