Is this you?Become a LibraryThing Author. |
Length? Very long.
Characters? None.
Setting? Real world throughout history, and one major religion.
Written approximately? 1993.
Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? No.
Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? Many quotes, even modern ones were unattributed. The religious quotes, especially direct from religious books need to be marked, as many are uncomprehendable. A few are duplicated in various sections.
Short storyline: Various quotes and anecdotes in a semi organized fashion.
Notes for the reader: In many places, it feels as if the author is intending to preach, rather than share historical quotes. Very few of them are funny. ( )
