Do you read in bed? And sometimes don't you feel that it's a little bit uncomfortable? Look at this:

Are Bed Books the most significant innovation in printing and reading books since the printing press? The ingenious Bed Book format has the text printed sideways on the page so that the book can be read when lying on one's side. Discovered by a retired filmmaker in a sleeping module in his RV which had a 24 inch ceiling, the revolutionary patent pending sideways text layout of Bed Books affords total comfort for persons who love to read in bed but are tired of the back and neck strain, and the contorted body positions normally required for reading conventional books in bed. (...)
"The first Bed Books we have created are great classics, such as Pride and Prejudice, The War of the Worlds, Wuthering Heights, Huck Finn, two Sherlock Holmes titles, The New Testament, Peter Pan, and many more. We intend to add titles as increasing numbers of people and publishers become aware of this new technology" said Mr. Green. "We want our web site to be fun and informative, and a sanctuary for the millions of neglected bed readers. We even have a Bed Book Fan Club, and a place where you can submit pictures of oddball positions and inventions people have been forced to come up with in order to read in bed comfortably,"

If you are interested in this ..erm.. the most significant innovation in printing since Gutenberg, you can visit their website www.bedbooks.net. Wuthering Heights can be found in a paperback or hard cover edition.
