Can't think of too many put downs that are warm and springlike... but I've been wrong before. Several times on BD just today in fact!

Yes on Scotland.
Louis . . . no, but right track.
Nothing math. All English and literature related.

Can be straight relation as in:
"Jetson head folliage" = George Bush

or with a phonetic twist, as in:
"single soldier house for a sweet home without an Al" = barrack abama (Obama)

This should ease it up.
Cheers

PS: the main work is within the aterisks, the preceeding refer to author, plot, protagonaist

Maybe a math answer?

Spoiler for Work=

Force x time

That got anything to do with it?

Spoiler for Actually

Work = Force x Distance.

Force x Time is impulse, imparting change in momentum.

[Shakeepuddn]

Bonanova, no math.

Spoiler for LOL!!!

Wow!
I figured if you guys (and girls) could decipher combo meal, no problem. I guess there’re more mathheads than linguists here. Ok, maybe some clarification is in order:

The intro is nothing to the riddle, it’s just a quip about hopping back and forth from periodic table to math table figuring out Yor-ichi-san’s (your itchy son) combo meals, and about how mild and easily slain my first riddles were. My original deconstruction, though tagged on first reply, is an example of what’s required. (Cartesian infinitive = to be)

Main riddle is looking for a work of literature: the title can be phonetically reconstructed from clues in section set off by asterisks. Just prior to, are clues as to author, basic plot, main character: “A seasonal put down . . .”

Example of method for deciphering: “An article for climactic phenomena pertaining to conflict”

An article (the) climactic phenomena (winds) pertaining to (of) conflict (war)

Book: The Winds of War

Each clue does not neccessarily equate to a single word. It could be a phonetic part. Watch for sequence.

Easy . . . right?
