The last commandment in Elmore Leonard's 10 Rules of Writing declares that an author should "try to leave out the part that readers tend to skip." The people at Phoenix Press think a number of classic authors were negligent in observing this rule. Anna Karenina, for instance, weighs in at a whopping 800-plus pages. Who can possibly hope to read that and still have time to watch Dancing with the Stars? "The great classics contain passionate romance, thrilling adventure, interesting characters, and unforgettable scenes and situations," Phoenix generously acknowledges.

Prescription drugs aren't the only things that have Americans looking outside the country's borders for lower prices. College textbooks also cost less in some parts of the world, and Web shoppers scouring the globe for better deals have publishers scrambling to keep foreign books out of American classrooms. American students spend an average of almost $900 a year on new textbooks and supplies, according to a Government Accountability Office report released late last month. Because textbooks are developed primarily for U.S. classrooms, Americans must bear the brunt of development costs for new textbooks, publishers told the GAO. "The cost of preparing textbooks is high," said Bruce Hildebrand, a spokesman for the Association of American Publishers.
