Alphabetical Africa, a 1974 novel by author Walter Abish, offers readers a new way of writing that binds writers to certain patterns and constraints.
Abish limits his novel to using the alphabet. Chapter one, named A, is written only with words that begin with the letter A. The next 25 chapters follow the same path to the letter Z, which completes the alphabet.
This style of writing is a big enough challenge for any writer, however, Abish takes it a step further. In the second half of the novel, Abish reverses the stereotype. Chapter 27 has every letter except Z. And for the next 25 chapters, he follows this pattern again and ends up in chapter 52 with every letter except the letter A.
Despite some errors in the implementation, most of the book adheres to this constraint with great precision and creativity.
Several Dead Sea scrolls are on display at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem in 2018. (Photo: ABCNews).
From a 10-year excavation period from 1946 to 1956, The Dead Sea Scrolls lived up to their name: 15,000 scrolls.
They are found on the northwest shore of the Dead Sea, scattered in 11 caves near Qumran. They were then put together and historians worked tirelessly to piece together the contents and date the scrolls.
One current theory is that most of them date back to about 2,000 years ago. Many scrolls are written in ancient Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. A small number of manuscripts have been translated into other languages. All suggest they could be books and religious documents.
More than half a century since its discovery, The Dead Sea Scrolls remains one of the most influential finds for modern theology, archaeology, and especially Judean history. They provide insight into the people who wrote them, the context in which they lived, the way they thought, and even how their culture evolved and differed.

While most works just need readers to read from beginning to end, Mark Z. Danielewski’s debut novel House of Leaves needs much more.
This is a tangled work of fiction about a documentary that features a maze-like house and the story of the family that lives there. The novel has an experimental style, interweaves layers and seems to combine both horror and romance genres.
House of Leaves, both in plot and form, demands the reader’s real attention. The book is 709 pages long with many words overlapped, upside down, stretched horizontally and stylized in a number of different fonts. Even many passages have hidden meanings of puzzles that make the reader like to sink into a maze.

In many ways, James Joyce’s final work is quite similar to Mark Z. Danielweski’s debut. Finnegans Wake, written for about 17 years, is considered one of the most difficult to read novels of the Western literary world. This is also an experimental work that weaves stories between reality and the dream world.
The work is so confusing that almost 100 years after it was first published, much of the plot remains a mystery. This ambiguity comes from the way Joyce uses language with various puns and word combinations to create ambiguity and a dreamy atmosphere for the novel.
Even the most die-hard James Joyce fans find Finnegans Wake strangely confusing.
