It's sad, but I can only remember the name of Hamlet's castle by remembering the name of the brewery in Strange Brew.

I always thought it was spelled "euphenism". It's good to learn the correct spelling, but could that be accepted as a type in, please?

If we're going to accept my father's pronunciations, then we also have to accept chimley, samwich, and Massatusetts on other quizzes. :)

Oh, I read a bunch of those Encyclopedia Brown books. You always felt good about yourself when you knew the answer.

LOVED those as a kid. Wasn't Sally the girl that always protected him 'cause she could beat up the bully? Wow, blast from the past.

These books are probably why I'm hooked on murder mysteries now, 40 years after 4th grade. LOL My kids loved them, too.

Sad that the boy detective wasn't Emil. Wrote in the wrong answer before reading the rest of the clue - loved that book

Got on the wrong path from the "with child" clue ... Tried typing "enceinte" - nice try, but no prize.

Could you also accept "Epos" instead of only Epic ? It means the same and in an ancient greek context it's more commonly used. At least in Europe, I presume :))

A good quiz. But am I the only one saddened to note that Rowling seems to have eclipsed Shakespeare? I console myself with the thought that it is probably only a temporary phenomenon.
