You can now read “The French Revolution” on Twitter

Author Matt Stewart has begun publishing his debut book “The French Revolution” entirely on Twitter.

According to Stewart, the book will take 3,700 tweets to cover the 480,000-character debut novel, and he intends to do it at the rate of one tweet every 15 minutes.

Before you think that the book may be a historical piece, you’d be seriously mistaken. “The French Revolution is an epic San Francisco tale, exploring the haywire extremes of the French Revolution within the microcosm of a dysfunctional family. Zany, tragic, imaginative, funny—the incisive wit and wordplay of Junot Diaz meets the multi-layered precision plotting of Jonathan Franzen” according to Stewart.
