It might be considered surprising that a platform that limits its users to 140 characters has so many literary-themed accounts. Our favorite of these are the parody accounts, spoofing famous authors from beyond the grave.
For the purposes of entertainment and inspiration, we've pulled together our best-of selection. Although there are many accounts that just push out the written word of authors, we've focussed on those that comment and engage using a particular author's voice.
Take a look through the slideshow below for our favorites and suggest in the comments any we've missed. We'll add the best suggestion in as the tenth slide.
[UPDATE: Thanks for all the suggestions -- we've added in Oliver Goldsmith as our tenth Tweeter.]
