The Eye of Argon, literary classic
Last night, I found out that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
esmeraldachubb and laughing_fox had never heard of The Eye of Argon. While it's a little weak on conventional stylistic virtues, it's given more pleasure to more people than a great many carefully polished works.
After having said "lithe opaque nose" several times and explained that a way of enjoying this unique masterpiece is to to have a group attempt to read it out loud (including the typos)--you pass the story to the next person as soon as you start laughing, I promised to post a link.
The last page was found recently and is included in the link above, but here's an critique which claims it doesn't match the style of the very original original.
