Het gaat om taal die verrast door de vorm, door de plaatsing van de letters, door weglatingen of herhalingen, en door het inspelen op de opmerkzaamheid van de lezer die geprikkeld wordt om zelf associaties te zien en verbanden te leggen.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"locations":[{"country":"US","place":"","category":{"en":"Died in","nl":"Overleden in","fr":"Décédé en"}},{"country":"US","place":"","category":{"en":"Born in","nl":"Geboren in","fr":"Né à"}}]}
