I got a Lemon Tea Snapple today at lunch and thought this was an appropriate Real Fact to share with you all: "French author Michel Thayer published a 233-page novel which has no verbs."Pretty crazy, right?
After a little search on Google I found out the name of the novel is Le Train de Nulle Part. Thayer believes "the verb is like a weed in a field of flowers. You have to get rid of it to allow the flowers to grow and flourish. Take away the verbs and the language speaks for itself."
