I've read Exercises in Style recently too. I found it amazing!
Do you read it in french or in other language?
Read it in Spanish... I mostly read books in Spanish. It was a faithful translation and Antonio Ferrer, the translator, said in the foreword that he changed very few things to adapt it to my language.
I can understand. I read mostly my books in french (my language) and in english when I totally desperate with no hope to find it in french.
