William Goldman does this a lot in the novel of The Princess Bride("This was after taste too, but only just") And he wrote the novel as if he were remembering a book that was read to him as a kid, he said his own version was the "good parts" version.

Thanks, that's it. Such a good book, but all I remembered of it was the plot, and none of the "good parts" stuff.
