emmelinemayI read today about the new 'mash-up novel' of Pride and Predjudice. With Zombies. It sounds like the silliest idea I have ever heard, and I REALLY want to read it.
The opening line is, apparently, It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.
This led to a discussion of other potential 'mash-up' classic novels, after one newspaper suggested that the author ahould also write 'Pride and Predator'.
This is our list so far:
Northanger Alien
Cyborgs and Sensibility
Man-eating Zombie Park
Wolverine Heights
What classical mashups can you think of?
