    When members of the Oulipo convened in New York, Bookworm was there to record this mini-anthology of the transcendentally witty, sometimes hilarious goings-on. Hear six Oulipeans perform variations on “To Be or Not to Be.” Hear Anne F. Garréta on new ways to arrange your library. Let Oulipo teach you how to turn writing into play.
