    If you don't get the nexus between the images right away, the deck is stacked against you. Now tell me something about your mother, as I look straight into your eyes...

    This puzzle is identical in format to Soka's Richard III puzzle. Each image alludes to a word, and the words form the title of a well-known book. You only need two of them to get the answer, even if you've never heard of the book. For those who've read the book, the images are superfluous. The answer is in the clues.

    Feathery puzzle —few pics taken last month while jogging, panting, breathless in training sneakers on a look out for hawkers selling roasted chestnuts

    (identify the books carved as benches to promote local book festival)

    I did not intend that - octa today, nona tomorrow ... too unstable, you see?
    Not top hit for me - so locale, cookies, recent searches, IP address effects?

    Saw through the second one right away. Had to train my eye to see the first one right.

    I could be replicating my Richard II behaviour but only one book pops up on seeing the images.
