About “Gadsby”
Gadsby is a 1939 novel by Ernest Vincent Wright, written without any words that contain the letter E, the most common letter in English. A work that deliberately avoids certain letters is known as a lipogram. The plot revolves around the dying fictional city of Branton Hills, revitalized through the efforts of protagonist John Gadsby and a youth organizer. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
