	Surely "French" should work for Camus. Algeria was part of France at the time, and he was a pied-noir, not an Arab.

	And "Czech" should obviously work for Kundera. He is at least as Czech as Joyce is Irish.

	Thanks for the note on Camus, I'll change that. However Kundera will remain as it is; Kundera had his Czech citizenship revoked, and was made a citizen of (the answer) at around the same time. Thanks.

	Fun quiz. My original thought was "This would work great in the wrong-answer format" but I'm glad it wasn't because it was really hard as is!

	Kundera's a tricky one, but I think it would be best to accept Czech and French, as he has been both a Czech and a French writer in his life.
