Total-E-Bound erotic publisher is about to add some spicy details to classic novels by the likes of Charlotte Bronte and Jane Austen.

The old characters will go through a lot of new sexual experiences, which have remained between the lines up until now.

Such books a Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Bronte’s Jane Eyre and Conan Doyle’s A Study in Scarlet will be rewritten with erotic scenes and released in the near future.

"We'll show you the scenes that you always wanted to see but were never allowed … The old fashioned pleasantries and timidity have all been stripped away, quite literally. You didn't really think that these much loved characters only held hands and pecked cheeks, did you?"
the publisher says.

The rewrites will give the readers a peep at the intimate life between Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester, and sexual experiences between Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson in A Study in Scarlet and in Northanger Abbey, Catherine will be introduced to a new world of sex with Henry.

According to The Guardian, even Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea will endure a revision, with a romantic story sparkling between Professor Pierre Aronnax and sailor and master harpooner Ned Land.

Revision of classical novels seems a great plan for the publisher to earn some money, considering the success proved by EL James's erotic Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy.

This is the kind of idiocy one would expect from a world sodden with vice, both natural and unnatural.  It's laughable and beneath contempt, so I wont waste too many words on it.

But it's just another reminder anyone who wants to gain wisdom that they should stick to true classics - in literature, art, music and even the cinema (and that means avoiding such moronic farragos as Robert Downey playing Sherlock Holmes).

Let' s resuce our culture, and let's start by getting reacquainted with it.
