A review of Georges Perec's classic, Joe Brainard-inspired Je me souviens was posted at the complete review more than a decade ago -- and now, finally, an English translation of this work is appearing, as I Remember.
I haven't seen it yet, but it's being published by Godine (see their publicity page) -- a translation by Philip Terry (The Book of Bachelors, etc.) with an introduction and notes by Perec-biographer (Georges Perec) David Bellos.
A pretty major translation-event, I'd say -- and a book that's definitely worth seeking out.
