Re-title Your Favourite Novel by LarrySun(m): 11:17pm On Oct 16, 2011 |
Hi fellow NLs. Let's assume you were given a chance to give another title to your favourite novel, what title would you think deems fit for it other than its original title? For instance, I would have retitled Mario Puzo's The Godfather as 'Mafia World'. Anne Rice's Interview With The Vampire as 'The Vampire Louis'. Leon Uris' Mila 18 as 'Jewish Hell'. Dan Brown's Angels And Demons as 'Satanic Saint'. Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Identity as 'The Bourne Threat'. Agatha Cristie's Murder On The Links as 'The Three Daggers'. What about you? |

Three gbosas for you for mentioning The Bourne Identity, one of my favourites too. unfortunately, my favourite books are already impeccably titled. I think the idea is interesting though and may try my hand at it later |

Interview with the vampire ~ Born into darkness Devil's Waltz (J. Kellerman) ~ Scary Parents most of his books are aptly titled anyway I'll have to think up more. |
