Entertaining and educational. Not surprised that nobody has got the Mutiny on the Bounty question but the Proslogion deserves to be better known. It contains a wonderfully archaic argument for the existence of God.

Dude a lot of these guys aren't British. Wilde and Joyce are Irish. Remarque was German.

Great quiz, thanks. I think The Satanic Verses was published in 1988
