If you’re feel­ing con­fi­dent, then we’d sug­gest tak­ing the lit­er­ary match­ing quizzes that the great Strand Book­store (locat­ed in New York City, of course) has giv­en to its prospec­tive employ­ees since the 1970s. Click here, and you can take a series of 5 quizzes (each with 10 ques­tions) where you’re asked to match authors and titles. When you’re done, let us know how you did in the com­ments sec­tion below. Best of luck.
