The Memory Palace Read Online Free PDF Page B

Your Domino's is covered in bees and melting in the sun. You don't see that every day.
    12. Someone call the Ghostbusters! Next up is a terrified man having a conversation with a ghost. The ghost is trying to give him money, but the man is too scared to move. This is, of course, The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain.
    13. Here we have the magician and illusionist David Copperfield, throwing copper playing cards at you. Pretty easy to remember, this one. David Copperfield!
    14. Alert the Discovery channel! We have a mouse with a beak! He's sat comfortably inside a little toy house. Bleak House, clearly. The cute little thing.
    15. Tick, tock, tick, tock. We have what looks like a pile of stones, but upon closer inspection you see they are in fact clocks. They're all ticking, telling you the time. A pile of clocks made of stone. Hard Times? Probably...
    16. Wowzers, it's Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz! She's teeny tiny, like a Barbie doll, and she's trying to get your attention. This is Little Dorrit, and there's no place like home.
    17. A model city is up next, it's a perfect model of New York by the looks of things. There's a big bushy tail wrapping it up to stop it from breaking in two. Without a doubt, this is A Tale of Two Cities.
    18. Careful with this one. It's a very sharp and very large X-shaped cheese grater. The X-shaped grater has got to be... Great Expectations.
    19. Company at last! Your best friend is at our next stop, and they're introducing you to someone you don't know. They reach out to shake your hand and introduce themselves. What an awkward moment. This must be Our Mutual Friend.
    20. Oh gosh. At our last spot we have... a severed head! It's wearing a Druid hood, and it's chanting. It's a murdered head of a druid. He's shouting at you that you have won the Dickens game! Success! You've reached the end, and this last book is The Mystery of Edwin Drood.
    Starting at the beginning, walk your way through your 20 locations now. From the burning newspapers to the winning head of a druid and back again. You should feel pretty proud of yourself at this point. You've not only learned 37 of Shakespeare's plays, but you've now added 20 more books by Dickens, for a total of 57 items, in chronological order, both forwards and backwards. This is revolutionary!
    You are now a genius. Congratulations.

TEST YOURSELF. BE AMAZED.
