Vague title that grabs your eye and makes you smile.
The Story of the Lizard Who Had the Habit of Dining on His Wives is a very well written. The romantic nature of the language highlighted the highs and lows of the main character. Also, the dialogue gave depth to the characters. The lizard was, at the beginning, proud and self assured. He hits on the woman with glasses with a level of almost overwhelming confidence. Yet, the woman, for the very start, is unimpressed and dismissive. He words were terse. With a combination of both the romantic language used and the dialogue, the story jumps from the pages. It is a very strong example of good writing.
