What's Your Literary Score According To The Greatest Novels Ever Written?

Why do you get it wrong if you haven't read it some of these are not what I'm interested in

I have a doctorate in English/Secondary Education and I'm a voracious reader, so of course I've read every one of these books, a couple of them I've read more than once!

I Don't Do Books. 🆘

Jack Scott, I had only four read.

Vita Searle, Shakespeare wrote plays and poetry. He wrote no novels.

Jack Scott, They are just less of a literary master.

Why are the top scorers called "master scribes"? A scribe is not a author and not necessarily an avid reader either. A scribe is a bookkeeper or record keeper and a copier of documents.

Very odd choice, no old classics such as Shakespeare, Dickens or Wilde. What about one of Agatha Christie's, one of the most read authors?

How is a person wrong if they haven't read these.

10/25...most before college.

dpetalas, I LOVE YOUR SARCASM ABOUT "THE LORD OF THE RINGS". I HAVE READ MOSTLY THE ENGLAND WRITERS. HOWEVER, THE BETTER USA ONES ARE UNCLE TOM'S CABIN, TOM SAWYER, LITTLE WOMEN. I DID NOT CARE FOR THE ABOVE CHOICE IN THE QUIZ..

THESE WERE MAINLY AMERICAN WRITERS. I HAVE READ A VERY WIDE SELECTION OF WRITERS OF ENGLAND : SHAKESPEARE, CHARLES DICKENS, THACKERAY, AND MANY OTHERS. MY COUNTRY, INDIA, HAS MANY GOOD ENGLISH AUTHORS, THAT I HAVE READ TOO. (R.K. NARYAN COMES TO MIND).

Not a fair representation of literary prowess. Not everyone likes fiction. I prefer history, biographies, and historical novels. IMO, reading those shows more literacy than entertainment in the form of fiction.

Alan Conyard, how can it be 15/15 when there are 25 questions?

15/15. Not too bad.
