If it's that size, you're looking at the reading equivalent of War and Peace, something that would take most people more than a weekend to read. Got to be a lot in it.

Reading War and Peace....

Young people in school now are said to be doing “deep reading” if the article, or fiction or nonfiction material is longer than items such as 2-3 pages of Wikipedia. I heard that “deep reading” phrase in radio discussions of reading levels. Some read graphic novels or condensations to avoid longer works.

Yipes if true.

You do know the original title was "War, What Is It Good For?"

How thick is a phone book? The Cliff Notes version was thicker than my home county’s phone book.
