Welcome to my Message Board!
                                                 Subject: Slimming down classics?
      Mr.
Handsome

6:34 AM		     Orion Books, which decides there is a market in creating cut-down classics (经典著作), is
slimming down some novels by such great writers as L. Tolstoy, M. Mitchell and C. Bronte.
Now, each of them has been whittled down to about 400 pages by cutting 30 to 40 pages per
cent of original, with words, sentences, paragraphs and, in a few cases, chapters removed. The
first six shortened editions, all priced at ￡6.99 and advertised as great reads"in half the
time", will go on sale next month, with plans for 50 to 100 more to follow. The publishing
house believes that modern readers will welcome the shorter versions.

9:40 AM		     Well, I'm publisher of Orion Group. Thanks for your attention, Mr. Handsome.
     I must say, the idea developed from a game of "shame" in my office. Each of us was
required to confess (承认) to the most embarrassing blanks in his or her reading. I admitted
that I had never read Anna Karenina and tried but failed to get through Gone with the Wind
several times. One of my colleagues acknowledged skipping (跳读) Jane Eyre. We realized
that life is too short to read all the books you want to and we never were going to read these
ones.
     As a leading publishing house, we are trying to make classics convenient for readers but
it's not as if we're withdrawing the original versions. They are still there if you want to read
them.

     Mr. Edwards, I think your shortened edition is a breath of fresh air. I'm guilty of never
having read Anna Karenina, because it's just so long. I'd much rather read two 300-page books
than one 600-page book. I am looking forward to more shortened classics!

     In my opinion, the practice is completely ridiculous. How can you edit the classics? I'm
afraid reading some of these books are hard work, and that is why you have to develop as a
reader. If people don't have time to read Anna Karenina, then fine. But don't read a shortened
version and kid yourself it's the real thing.
