John Atkinson, the creator of Wrong Hands cartoons, cleverly sums up these works in the least amount of words possible, enhanced by his delightfully deadpan illustrations. More than a hundred titles are included from Brave New World to Pride and Prejudice and Romeo and Juliet to The Great Gatsby. The literary endeavors contained in these pages -- which make pithy molehills out of verbose mountains -- are sure to amuse, confuse, educate, or irritate." -- Back cover. 541 $d 20190306. 650 $a Literature $v Humor. 941 $a 3 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012021251.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20200806015436.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20190322010652.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CC6C91AA4C6711E99DBA2A3597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
