Suggestion for book publishers and authors. A modest proposal. Make

your titles easy to remember. Some of us, specially if we're chronologically gifted, have difficulty
remembering titles. So make your titles easy to remember, for example:

Tom Jones
David Copperfield
Dracula

You follow my general idea, I guess.

Used to be I could remember author, title, ISBN, well, those are relatively recent. But if they'd existed, I'd probably
have remembered them.
