This could be the next big thing on some digital TV channel. Barbara Cartland vs. Dan Brown, three falls or a submission to determine the winner.

Well, you've got to do something with all those unreadable tomes I had to stay awake through for French 'A' level.
Always thought there had to be some point in Racine, Corneille and Jean-Paul Sartre. With this video, it's now all perfectly clear.

...but no language (other than the Northern dialect of Korean) produces such a quantity of books unfit for any other purpose. At least not since the demise of Commie Russia. Cuban Spanish might come close, of course.
Trouble with the Commie tomes, though, is they'd do serious damage if they hit you (Brezhnev's collected works were bookbound to last). All that softback French stuff is flaccid in every sense of the word.
