Jacqueline Tattam,
None of these authors are American. I suspect the quiz may have been an American, but given the variety of authors, most of these authors are foreigners to someone/everyone.
1. Stieg Larsson is Swedish,
2. Yann Martel is Canadian,
3 & 22 Gabriel García Márquez is Colombian
4. Albert Camus was French
5. Khaled Hosseini was born in Afghanistan,
6. Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra was Spanish,
7. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry was French,
8. Jules Verne was French,
9. Milan Kundera is Czech,
10. Daniel Defoe was English,
11. Anne Frank was German/Dutch
12. Haruki Murakami is Japanese,
13 & 23 Fyodor Dostoevsky was Russian,

Sybilla,
I don't understand your point about the differences between British and American English or why you brought it up since Oscar Wilde was Irish.
BTW, Gray is a last name and does not refer to the color/colour grey (British spelling).
