A literary quiz book with a difference. Rather than basic sets of questions, the book mirrors the format of Wigglesworth's live quizzes, so there are lots of multiple-choice questions, some amusing answers, clever red herrings, little-known facts about authors, and some of the much-loved Say What You See picture rounds. There are fixed and variable rounds including Blankety Books with one word missing from the title, always with a theme, Literary Links and lists connecting, 2 of a Kind where the name of the character and the author share the same initials. Plus real or made-up Dickens names, Shakespearian insults and a Book Bingo where you identify the correct number. There are also more standard rounds such as First Lines, Working Titles and Banned Books. Which of these was published first: A) Born to Run by Michael Morpurgo, B) What I Talk About When I Talk About Running by Haruki Murakami or C) The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner by Alan Sillitoe? This anagram is an author?s name: I am a full wrinkle. 278pp with answers and many line illus.
