Reader Challenge: Classics in 6 Words
Reader "auistinblan" originally suggested this idea, and we loved it so much we thought we'd make it this month's Reader Challenge. Take the biggest, most literary, or most 'important' book you know and summarize it in 6 words—no more, no fewer—and share your micro-masterpieces in our Reader Challenge forum.
