Essay:Redwall - Facebook Style

LordTBT August 31, 2009

After reading about the new Penguin release Ophelia Joined the Group Maidens Who Don't Float: Classic Lit Signs on to Facebook by Sarah Schmelling, I knew immediately that Redwall needed to receive the Facebook lit treatment.

However, the route I went with this is not overly silly or modern (no characters having e-mail, watching movies, etc), it's more along the lines of viewing the story unfold on the Facebook News Feed, with a bit of whimsy thrown in too.

Adapting Redwall to this format and abridging the book was a very interesting and fun experience. It's quite fascinating how entire chapters can be broken down into 1 line of a Facebook occurence. Of course, to fully appreciate it you have to be familiar with the novel. This satire is meant in the spirit of fun.

Without further ado, I present Redwall - Facebook Style!

Enjoy!

I was thinking about a Redwall Facebook profile just the other day. I'm glad you made one!
"Chickenhound thought he was in pain before, this is worse. Like 'permanent disfigurement' worse."

This is nice :) I love, "Cluny the Scourge is wondering how the Joseph Bell can just float there with no rope attached." then, "Cluny the Scourge is no longer online."
