I would quite like to unleash Dickens on the Tories.

imagine William Shakespeare in the age of social media. 24/7 supreme dick jokes and the world celebrates.

Victor Hugo vs Twitter’s 140 character limit

Okay but Oscar Wilde on Instagram

Give Asimov an actual real robot

Show Lovecraft a mixed-race president and watch him shit himself in fear and anger

Introduce Mark Twain to Stephen Colbert, preferably in front of a live audience

All of these. And bring Dumas to meet Obama.

Lord Byron and facebook.

Show Tolkien the movies they made of his books
