	Dostoyevsky is also spelled Dostoevsky; I think you should accept that.

	Spell Shakespeare ten times fast! Like the quiz, might want to mix it up a little though. Maybe limit it to 3 works per author.

	nice quiz.

	This a pretty poor selection of works, they should be in some order, and the directions should say to name the author of the works of literature.

	Um, this is the name of the AUTHOR. This is NOT the names of the works.

	Just type Shakespeare whenever you see drama and you've got like half of those. I guess it's okay then that you didn't use any of his more obscure works, since Shakespeare is the most sensible first guess anyway.

	The Jew of Malta is something of an odd choice for your one work by Marlowe--Dr Faustus, Tamburlaine, or even Edward II would make more sense to me.

	I personally think it's an excellent quiz. I'd like to see some more modern works on here though.

	Please take Clemens/Samuel Clemens for Mark Twain. Vergil is the classical spelling of Virgil, a corruption introduced in the middle ages. Dante's last name is Alighieri; it would be nice if you took it. The correct format of "Lord Alfred Tennyson"'s name is Alfred, Lord Tennyson. HG Wells also wrote a book called the Invisible Man, which is a classic, although less well known than Ellison's.

	@lirazel Thanks for the comment. I'll try adding the real names for those with pseudonyms. However, I don't think I'm going to add Wells because the books are so different, and Wells uses "the" in his title.
