Lipogram-e
This is a dataset of 3 English books which do not contain the letter "e" in them. This dataset includes all of "Gadsby" by Ernest Vincent Wright, all of "A Void" by Georges Perec, and almost all of "Eunoia" by Christian Bok (except for the single chapter that uses the letter "e" in it)
This dataset is contributed as part of a paper titled "Most Language Models can be Poets too: An AI Writing Assistant and Constrained Text Generation Studio" to appear at COLING 2022.
This dataset and the works within them are examples of Lipograms, which are works where a letter or string is systematically omitted. Lipograms are an example of hard-constrained writing.

Papers archive 2025-07-28
1 shown of 1 paper with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 1. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
