I have for some time been aware of the existence of the book Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. I have skimmed through it in the shop, and it looks very clever. But I dont know whether I want to read it or not! I have been wondering if it would ruin the real thing. Plus, the real thing is cheaper than this joke book, which in my opinion devalues literature. I was thinking I would wait for the movie.
Then yesterday on Austenblog I saw a trailer for a follow-up novel, Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters. I don't know how to embed videos but go and have a look if it interests you. Here is a sample illustration.
