"An inventive story and a loving tribute to literary tradition! I expect nothing less from Jay Bushman!" --Bernie Su, three-time Emmy-winning storyteller and co-creator of The Lizzie Bennet Diaries

Synopsis
From an Emmy Award-winning writer, witty and hilarious advice to classic literary characters--from Lady Macbeth to Victor Frankenstein--on how to cope with their most arduous, "real-life" struggles. Why do we love literature? There are many reasons, of course, but one of them has to be that we find the characters relatable. Even while fictional, their problems and predicaments feel real, speaking to human nature and reality even when wrapped in fantastical or romantic packaging. When a real-world person has a problem, they turn to their friends, family, therapists--and advice columnists. In Novel Advice , our favorite characters from classic literature do just that, writing in to Aunt Antigone, the "agony aunt for the fictional" who dishes out practical advice, along with a fair dose of snark. By turns amusing, touching, and enlightening, see what Aunt Antigone has to say about: -Relationships , with advice for Ophelia and Ishmael about their dating woes -Careers and Work , when Dr. Jekyll searches for the perfect work/life balance -Mental Health , when Scarlett O'Hara wants tips about the best way to handle stress -Finances , in response to Mrs. Bennet's request for tips to manage her money woes -Community and Society , as when Hester Prynne writes in for help with her judgy neighbors Emmy Award-winning writer Jay Bushman imaginatively considers those scenarios and dozens more. He shines a light not only on the key themes and plot points found in our favorite classic novels and plays, but also on the human nature that lies beneath these enduring works of fiction. Perfect for fans of Texts from Jane Eyre , Tequila Mockingbird , and booklovers everywhere, this book is a hilarious and thought-provoking look at our favorite literary characters seeking help from an advice columnist with her own dramatic background., Witty and hilarious advice to classic literary characters on how to cope with their most arduous, "real-life" struggles.

    I love this ring holder! I broke the one I had while cleaning and this one is exactly like it! Packing was perfect to protect it, got it for a reasonable price, and I understand the cost of shipping, as I feel the pinch when I mail any package. Thank you for getting it to me in a timely manner.
