Eunoia: The Set (CD and Book): The Set (CD and Book) by Christian Bök
The word `eunoia', which literally means `beautiful thinking', is the shortest word in English that contains all five vowels. Eunoia is a five-chapter book in which each chapter is a univocal lipogram (the first chapter has A as its only vowel, the second chapter only E, etc.). Each vowel takes 0n a distinct personality - the I is egotistical and romantic, the O jocular and obscene, the E elegaic and epic. Stunning in its implications and masterful in its execution, Eunoia is one of the most unusual and important books of the decade. This set includes a CD recording of Eunoia read in its entirety by the author, as well as a copy of the book so you can follow along!
