There’s nothing I enjoy more than a good book, and people who “don’t have time” to read simply astound me.
But if you’re one of those people who does happen to fall into this category, http://www.rinkworks.com/bookaminute is definitely a website you’ll want to check out.
True to its name, Book a Minute is the home of extremely condensed versions of many popular novels. Or, as their motto reads, “When even the Cliff’s Notes are too long, come here.”
Featuring everything from Beowulf to Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, this site even offers dual condensations for “multi-leveled” work.
Take George Orwell’s Animal Farm, for instance. The first of two brief interpretations features a brief summary of the political and philosophical themes found in the work.
The second, “simple” summary merely states: ”Some pigs lead a revolt against people, act like jerks, and play poker.”
