Going back to this, from my understanding, it's basically a graphic version of Twilight, which is probably why it's garnered the exact passionate love/hate reaction it has.

I weep for humanity.

Speaking of 50 Shades Of Grey, has anyone else heard about this new line of 50 Shades-inspired takes on classic literature?

Quote:
digital publisher Clandestine Classics has now taken the recent "Jane Austen plus zombies" formula to its dismally logical conclusion with Fifty Shades-inspired versions of books like Jane Eyre, Pride And Prejudice, Northanger Abbey, Sherlock Holmes: A Study In Scarlet, and 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, all with added sex scenes and—to quote a passage from the "enhanced" Pride And Prejudice—steamy descriptions like this one of Mr. Darcy: "Hot, spicy, and all man."
Fifty Shades Of Grey*now also ruining classic literature | Books | Newswire | The A.V. Club

I have to say, i'm kind of interested to see how exactly these turn out.

The unfortunate downside of the Internet, give any idiot an outlet and soon any idiot is churning out garbage like this for other idiots to buy. Best advice I can offer is to just ignore it and go about your day, I've been doing it for pop music for the last 8 years and it's worked like a charm.

I don't like books about love and **** anyway.

I'll take a note of that! What's it roughly like?

Two teenagers passionately in lust who leave a trail of corpses as they fuck their way across Europe.

Wow, that's dark! I haven't read any books across those lines in a long while, although I have Myra Hindleys book which I'm dying to read. Totally forgot about it.

It's not quite as dark as Marqius de Sade's 120 Days of Sodom but it's pretty damn close.
