So sharing a wickedly clever put down of a work of literature right up there with "The covers of this book are too far apart." by Ambrose Bierce . This dialog from The Coast of Utopia by Tom Stoppard that I am currently reading:
Quote:
Polevoy (to Chaadaev): But no doubt you have read Kukolnik's play?

Chaadev: No . . . I started to read it but after a while I seemed to lose interest, and I was still on the title.
I'll have to remember that for use the next time my local library book club picks a book I reallly can't muster any interest in.
