Remember, the one where one of us chose some obscure book and gave a brief synopsis and we all had to invent an opening line, then the game warden would write out all of the opening lines and we'd have to choose the real one ?

Anybody up for that? I can go snooping around my library to find an obscure book.

Oh, please BelMarduk, you really don't have to make it any tougher. This one only went well , because Tsuwm was so kind to give some clues to the attentive reader.
I just learned from this one , by your explications how I should make a definition.

But still , this sounds like fun too.

Heart of Darkness maybe?

Oh Tsuwm! Any book here mentioned looses instantly it's obscureness. If I said : Camera Obscura by Hildebrand which none of you could possibly know; see, it looses it's obscureness just by mentioning it. No?
I'm loosing hope.It was a joke! A Joke!
