We continue the Lit session in this new game thread...

For all newcomers here is an explanation of the game:

In the current Literature session I post a discription of an author and a few of works in clue-form.

When you have guessed correctly I edit in your answers in the original post containing the text on the author and the list of clued works.

After that I write this - Well done, "your name"!

You may continue.

Sometimes, if the thread havent been touched for a while, I move the entire text of the post to a new post to bump it up for attention or I simply post a new author.
