What it should say on the tin

Just discovered Dan Wilbur's blog Better Book Titles (via the Guardian newspaper). Brilliant!

I'd like to nominate "Moby Dick" for the title, "There's 10 Hours of My Life I'll Never Get Back."

Or.

"Why does Herman Melville hate us so?"

Or.

"Call me Ishmael... one more time and I'll punch you."

He takes readers' suggestions on Fridays. Go give some books their proper names. Ya know ya wanna. He's here.
