Le narrateur rencontre, dans un autobus, un jeune homme au long cou, coiffé d`un chapeau orné d`une tresse au lieu de ruban. Le jeune homme échange quelques mots assez vifs avec un autre voyageur, puis va s`asseoir à une place devenue libre. Un peu plus tard, le narrateur rencontre le même jeune homme en grande conversation avec un ami qui lui conseille de faire remonter le bouton supérieur de son pardessus. Cette brève histoire est racontée quatre-vingt-dix-neuf fois, de quatre-vingt-dix-neuf manières différentes. Mise en image, portée sur la scène des cabarets, elle a connu une fortune extraordinaire. "Exercices de style" est un des livres les plus populaires de Queneau.

The work of nearly thirty of the world`s top up-to-the-minute illustrators is organized into three different styles. The sensualists - for example, François Berthoud - adhere to a fluid, fine-arts tradition.
