OuLiPo is a loose gathering of (mainly) French-speaking writers and mathematicians who seek to create works using constrained writing techniques. One member, Perec, wrote a similar book called 'La Disparition’.

The English translation of Perec's book is not an easy read, though full points for making the omission relevant to the plot. I assume it works better in French, with a few more basic words available?
