From the library

Well, the world was certainly turning upside down!
Anne of Green Gables, p. 6 · C1
The whole place was turned upside down, drawers burst open, and presses ransacked, with the result that an odd volume of Pope’s ‘Homer,’ two plated candlesticks, an ivory letter-weight, a small oak barometer, and a ball of twine are all that have vanished.”
The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, p. 31 · B2
