Your own anagram theory must certainly apply to still another kind of creation (which I don't think has irony or humor as its chief aim). Real life and fiction are intermingled in a different way.

True, but some of my anagrams are really amusing and I hope will make one smile:

MARX + ENGELS = ELSINOR + GAMLET + E?IT - TOILET - I (Gamlet is the Russian spelling of Hamlet; in Ada, Gamlet is a Russian hamlet near Ardis Hall)

??????? + ??????????? = ?????? + ???? + ?????????? + ?? - ???? = ???????????? + ????????? - ???

??????? - Tolstoy
??????????? - Dostoevski
?????? - stall
???? - cattle; beast
?????????? - villainy; evil deed
?? - Ay (champagne)
???? - ashes, cinders
???????????? - Tolstoevski
????????? - domestic tyrrany; Domostroy is a book written in the 16th century for the young tsar Ivan Vasilievich, a code of moral and religious rules of a Muscovite
??? - rum
