#Moby-Dick; Or, The Whale by Mike Bezemek
Tweet by tweet, a classic unfolds.
Bezemek makes Moby-Dick engaging and fun—halfway between the original and Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, with Ishmael LOLing and OMGing all the way. . . Maybe if I’d been able to experience the classics via hashtags and emoji, I might have read more in high school!” —Ian Doescher, author of the William Shakespeare’s Star Wars series
“Exploits one of the best-kept secrets in American literature: the wild, snarky playfulness of Moby-Dick.” —Tim Cassedy, creator of Dick: A Card Game Based on the Novel by Herman Melville
“Hilarious! Quirky! Imagine Holden Caulfield writing his own CliffsNotes. Modern versions of the original stories told with #attitude.” —Mark Greenside, author of (Not Quite) Mastering the Art of French Living and I’ll Never Be French (no matter what I do)
“‘Like catching the wind or damming a mountain stream with a straw,’ Mike Bezemek’s Twit Lit Classics accomplishes the unaccomplishable—compressing MAJOR works of literature into #tl;dr volumes. The result is swaggering and serious, with a lyrical ellipticism that calls to mind George Saunders’ Lincoln in the Bardo. #praisedue indeed!!!” —JoAnna Novak, author of I Must Have You
“Read these tweets! @mikebezemek will make you laugh so hard you won’t realize how much you’re learning.” —Alison Espach, author of The Adults and Assistant Professor of English at Providence College
