Once upon a time...we read an article listing the 100 Best First Lines in literature. The article includes all the ones you expect: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,...", "Call me Ishmael.", "It is a truth universally known...", "Somewhere in La Mancha,...", and "Happy families are all alike;...". But the list also contained some unorthodox and brilliant ways to start a novel, so we decided to talk about those odd ones in this episode.
