 He also is widely acclaimed for his book, "Topographie Anécdotée* du Hasard" ("An Anecdoted Topography of Chance"), a literary analog to his snare-pictures, in which he mapped all the objects located on his table at a particular moment, describing each with his personal recollections evoked by the object.
