The book is about well nothing really. THe book contains nothing if you want to read something interesting, WRONG BOOK. If you want a punishment for anyone aged 1-30 make them read this and even better make them write an essay on it. If you ever have the unfortuante task of reading this book then stop after the first word and i promise you'll never regret it, I WISH I HAD. Only the devil and Mr Cook (are they the same person ?????) would make you read this. If you ever want to amuse yourself, if you have to read this for english, think of ways you can destroy the book, if not for yourself for humanity.
