Looking for Maidens Who Don’t Float?
Sarah’s book, Ophelia Joined the Group Maidens Who Don’t Float: Classic Lit Signs on to Facebook, a humorous “retelling” of classic lit inspired by Facebook, will be out August 25, 2009! Springing from the concept of Sarah’s Hamlet (Facebook News Feed Edition), Maidens brings more than 50 works and authors of classic literature back to life and online using news feeds, profile pages, groups and quizzes…even those 25 random things lists. Everything from The Odyssey to The Great Gatsby will be prodded and, um, poked. Read more from Publishers Weekly. Check out the book’s Facebook page. And see much more very soon on MaidensWhoDontFloat.com.
