20 plus 10 since I forget to list a choice 🙂
Oops, not my genre of expertise. I read I think two of his books in high school and that was many moons ago 🙂
Wish my son was here…he knows more about him than I do. Thanks again for making this quiz, but I have no answers to give you here today.
I should get Vance to take this for me – he loves Shakespeare (he didn’t get that from me!) and took 2 Shakespeare classes in college. I’m sure I will bomb it. Don’t laugh at my guesses.

I think I have them all right. I love my Shakespeare, although I’ll admit to not having read all of them. I know a lot of the characters from seeing the film adaptations, or the plays themselves. 🙂

Wow! And you know…I didn’t even notice Julius Caesar wasn’t listed. I just know the history, and that play, so well. 🙂 Thanks!
I received The Serpent of Venice yesterday. Thanks again!
Just mailed Infinite Jest this afternoon 🙂 I had such high hopes when I bought it 17 years ago. Let me know what you think.
