"Things. A Story of the Sixties" y "A Man Asleep" son dos novelas cortas de Georges Perec que exploran la búsqueda de la felicidad en una sociedad dominada por el consumismo y la posesión. En "Things", una pareja joven se obsesiona con adquirir objetos materiales como símbolo de estatus, mientras que "A Man Asleep" narra la historia de un estudiante que se aísla del mundo exterior y se sumerge en la apatía. Ambas obras ofrecen una crítica mordaz a la sociedad de consumo y una reflexión sobre la identidad y el sentido de la vida.
Georges Perec was a French novelist, filmmaker, documentalist, and essayist. He was a member of the Oulipo group. His father died as a soldier early in the Second World War and his mother was killed in the Holocaust. Many of his works deal with absence, loss, and identity, often through word play.
