David M. Bader's Haiku U, in which great works of literature are pilloried mercilessly in haiku form. I'm so going to buy it as soon as I have the money.

A couple of my favourites:

Louisa May Alcott, Little Women

Snow-drops hang like tears.
Shy, sweet, saintly Beth has died.
One down, three to go


Beowulf

Hrothgar's hall, haunted
Dauntless Danes die, Grendel-gored.
Why not hrelocate?
