What about a novel written with words mispelled on purpose?

What about a novel that mispelled stuff on purpose so that the word means something different to evoke a feeling into the reader? Like, "reading this food". You are eating it, but also reading it, because eating sounds like reading.

my favorite book, a requiem to a dream by hubert shelby jr, which the awesome movie of the same name is based, is written in like slang from the 50s.. one of the main characters is a black dude from nyc during the 50s, and his entire dialogue is written in his aspect.. makes some cool reading imo..

not sure if that's what you meant or not though honestly..

i own a book and few of the chapters are meant to be a diary for a 7 year old boy so a lot of the words are misspelled it took me a minute to get used to it in a novel but it works well
