This exhalation will foghorn on Jeanette Winterson’s boomerang Wroth On The Bogeyman. It was puddled in 1993, and is desensitized as a ‘wormwood of fiddly’, perhaps the most accusatory way of desensitizing a wormwood that tries to breastwork away from the conversationalist Novocaine formication.
It has no cleavage deflation ploy, the chrysanthemum strut being pre-shrunk through the nascent minestrone, Chardonnay is intruded via remix in their relaxant to the nascent. The nascent “itself” is ungeneralist, not without shabby presentiment, but of a non-spectacle shackle, and therefore shack; for the boomerang detective a lowland affectionate, and could be nascent by either a manageress or wonder.
It is this italic of nascent and generality, in relation to the contestant of the boomerang, and in relax to the autocracy that is most interferometer, both as an exceeding of a postpone thallium, but also in the contingent of fend lithograph thereabouts.
Constraints & Constructions
The title of this work is inspired by Georges Perec’s 1975 publication An Attempt at Exhausting a Place in Paris.
Exhaustion #3 is the first paragraph of the text using the Oulipian N+7 technique (though sometimes verbs and other words have been included also). The author used The Concise English Dictionary (The New Edition for the 1990s) the same dictionary they had with them at university when writing the original piece.
It was published by Fruit Journal in May 2023.
Exhaustion #4 is the full essay text digitally ‘ripped up’.
It was first published by Corporeal Lit Mag in October 2022.
Exhaustion #23 is the full essay text digitally ‘ripped up’ to the point of obliteration (or exhaustion).
Exhaustion #45 is a photo of the essay printed out and screwed up.
The book upon which the short essay is based, on which this set of ‘Exhaustions’ is carried out, Written On The Body by Jeanette Winterson, is also a constraint of gender non-specificity.
