   This is brilliant! Ulysses and War and Peace are my favourites in this.

   Whale wins. Wait a minute .. WHERE IS THE SPOILER ALERT ???

   Given that on British TV there was a rather sex-laden version of War and Peace I would even challenge the “everyone is sad” from War and Peace.
   And was Ulysses not about Getting Drunk, getting more drunk, sex, memories of …? Never read it, and whenever somebody tries to summarize it, it gets slightly confusing 😉

    National Lampoon’s October 1986 issue had a similar “Kondensed Kliffs Notes”. For Moby Dick: “A whale bites off a man’s leg and the man can’t forget about it.”
