Publisher's Synopsis
Kleffner Von Cantop's classic homophonic translation of the The Holy Bible, King James Version. Presented by the Royal Von Cantop Institute. Described as "mankind's greatest literary accomplishment," this latest definitive edition is an essential addition to any scholar's library.Von Cantop, the 19th century's greatest homophonic theologian, painstakingly translated the Bible using alternate words that, when spoken aloud, sound like the original sacred text. ("Tahoe Leap Eyeball," for instance, sounds like "The Holy Bible.")Word by word, verse by verse, working in his Brooklyn tenement in the late 1800's, Von Cantop recreated the entire Bible. From "Chin Assess" (Genesis) to "Raffle Haitian" (Revelation), this text contains both the "Oldest Almond" and the "Nudist Almond," typeset and certified by the International Consortium of TLE Academies.Tahoe Leap Eyeball remains the most bizarre translation of holy writ. The text will find a home on the bookshelf of the scholar, the seeker, and the collector of literary arcania.
