In ten words or less: Literary classics tweeted: WTF?

Review: A pair of college sophomores rework "literary classics for twenty-first-century intellect, in digestible portions of 20 tweets or fewer."
"The Aeneid" by Virgil lead off with "Got a gift of a huge wooden horse today, here in Troy. Just appeared outside the city gate. BTW: war going poorly."
It's one joke, stretched thin over 200 pages. Most of the tweets focus on sex, drugs, or scatological humor. When did "The Da Vinci Code," Harry Potter," and "Twilight" become literary classics? Maybe if you're twenty.

Why bother? Don't.
