Belle dame but yes.
>15 is doyle hound baskervilles
Correct.

Some other anon should be able to help out.
>27 is longfellow the ballad about the fisherman and his daughter getting caught in a storm
Wreck of the Hesperus.
>54 is chaucer im guessing
As above, someone else should be able to ID the work, I'm sure. (He didn't write that much.)
>76 is scott ivanhoe
Correct. Not sure how /lit/ anons will feel about this book. Fine cheery chivalry, but on the other hand, a sympathetic jewess. They’ll be torn.
>78 is la motte foque undine
Right. Strange little book, but Undine herself clearly did nothing wrong.

Pretty much all good; just a couple of book names to be filled in:
>8) The Sun Also Rises? This reads like Hemingway
Correct.
>and I seem to recall a Robert.
Robert Cohn, the naive Jewish boxer guy.
>37) Neuromancer, or at least William Gibson.
WG yes, Neuromancer no.
>43) Is this a hardboiled detective? I see Dashiell Hammett on the list.
It is indeed Dashiell Hammett. I'm sure someone can pinpoint the book (he didn’t write many).
>71) This one's Catcher in the Rye, right?
Of course. Holden discovering he isn't quite suave enough to have sex with the prostitute he got sold.
>96) Journey to the End of the Night?
Correct. More translations than usual this time (25/100) but hopefully none of them depend too heavily on a particular version.
