}}Rhys Henry Hughes (born 1966, Cardiff, Wales) is a Welsh fantasy writer and essayist.[1]InfluencesBorn in Cardiff, Hughes has written in a variety of forms, from short stories to novels, with a mix of influences, which include Italo Calvino, Milorad Pavić, Jorge Luis Borges, Stanisław Lem, Flann O'Brien and Donald Barthelme, occasionally creating "highly original and chimerical monsters".[2] He has been published in Postscripts.[3] Although he is not a member of OuLiPo, the international literary group that uses mathematics and logic to create texts that break the familiar patterns of "normal" writing, he is one of the few English-speaking practitioners of these methods. Some of his more experimental works can be considered examples of ergodic literature.[4]{{failed verification|date=October 2017}} His long novel Engelbrecht Again! is a sequel to Maurice Richardson's 1950 cult classic The Exploits of Engelbrecht and is the most radical of Hughes's books, making extensive use of lipograms, typographical tricks, coded passages and other OuLiPo techniques.[5] His main project consists of authoring a 1,000-story cycle of both tightly and loosely interconnected tales.[5] Bibliography Novels - The Percolated Stars: An Astro-Caffeine Romp in Three Cups Featuring Batavus Droogstoppel Merchant and Scientist and Bourgeois Monster: One Lump or Two?
