Welcome to the new world of literature, as reimagined by yours truly, in a book that is as easy to read as the crappiest clickbait slide show story, but without the ads and with plenty of pics to give your poor ole brain a rest from the words. Words can be exhausting, let’s face it. But just because it’s easy to read doesn’t mean it doesn’t contain as much subtle wit and wisdom as Shakespeare itself. Shit, is there anything harder than Shakespeare? Literature needs to be more fun — or “lit” as the kids say. I call the new form of books Lit Lit.

Please enjoy. These are the first seven chapters of the first official work of Lit Lit which is titled Bottomless Hippopotamus.
