How would the author of "The Rise of Silas Lapham" have pronounced the last name of his title character? Please provide supporting evidence for your answer.
I just have to know, as I’ve never seen any: are there any novels based upon the Sesame Street movies? It seems reasonable to expect some, but again I’ve never seen any myself.
My question is inspired by this reading challenge proposal about The Policeman's Beard is Half Constructed, which collects short stories, etc. that were generated (written?) by a computer program.
Does this fit in with any commonly-accepted definitions of literature?
