AND is the exact opposite of a well-carried out abridging job. Instead of removing the extra details and that sort of thing, the "author" has removed everything important and left the extras behind.

And, for some bizarre reason, it’s incredibly funny. As tattered and random as it is there is a certain poetic, vaguely Victorian feel to the prose, which clashes with the random-ness of it all:

"Margaret made little plans for a lot of the poorer parishioners. A stab in the heart for Old Simon, Mary Domville’s little crippled boy forsaken, and many others besides.

"Oh, mamma, let us do all we can," said she eagerly. "

You could probably blow through it in less than half an our in the state it’s currently in.

But I’m going to give it three stars, because it made me giggle like an idiot for the entire time.
