Book Summary
Exercises in Criticism is an experiment in applied poetics in which critic and
poet Louis Bury utilizes constraint-based methods in order to write about
constraint-based literature. By tracing the lineage and enduring influence of
early Oulipian classics, he argues that contemporary American writers have, in
their adoption of constraint-based methods, transformed such methods from
apolitical literary laboratory exercises into a form of cultural critique, whose
usage is surprisingly widespread, particularly among poets and "experimental"
novelists. More, Bury's own use of critical constraints functions as a
commentary on how and why we write and talk about books, culture, and ideas.
