No idea how I missed this: the Telegraph’s got a piece on great works of literature shortened into tweets. My favourite:

(Pride and Prejudice) janeaustin: Woman meets man called Darcy who seems horrible. He turns out to be nice really. They get together.

And: 

(Bridget Jone’s Diary) helenfielding: RT @janeaustin Woman meets man called Darcy who seems horrible. He turns out to be nice really. They get together.

If, say, the Wide Sargasso Sea becomes a tweet, there’d probably be a @charbronte in front. Cheeky stuff.
