Exercises in Style

I had fun reading Excersises in Style by Raymond Queneau. I found it very interesting that one story could be told in so many different ways. Simply changing punctuation within the story puts a whole new twist on the original story. For example, in Surprises, every sentence was ended with an exclamation point. This creates an entirely different tone for the story, and although the same storyline is being followed, it is like reading a different one. I also liked reading Double Entry. It was surprising to me to that you could tell the same story in so many styles.
