All good, more or less —
>11. Melville, Moby-Dick
Correct, although Duck Man already got it.
>49. H.D., from Sea Garden?
Hilda Doolittle, yes. Sea Garden, no (although that does have a lot of Classical stuff too). It's a poem called ‘Lethe’, first published in the collection ‘Heliodorus’.
>56. Hegel, preface to the Grundlinien der Philosophie des Rechts
Right. I guess Minerva is Roman but she’s just Athene with a new paint job.
>68. Pynchon, Mason & Dixon?
Correct.
>74. Mann, Death in Venice
A gondolier as Charon.
>82. Sterne, Tristram Shandy
Right. Proteus being the Greek of course. Uncle Toby a big help I guess.

>Another shot in the dark:
>James Ellroy, Clandestine?
Nope.
>#10
>This Harry Crews?
Nope.
>#23
>Murakami?
Correct. Someone must remember a Murakami book with a Hegel-quoting prostitute?
>#24
>Not at all one of my childhood recollections of Fanny Hill, but this must be John Cleland's book right HERE
Correct. Perhaps unsporting to choose one of the rare U-rated sections.
>#31
>Damn it, this is more likely Harry Crews
Correct. ‘The Mulching Of America’. Not one of his most famous titles, but a bunch of character names make up for the obscurity, maybe.
