A New Game for Those Who Read Classics
(Taken from a Mental Floss quiz, May 13, 2024)
Sometimes authors begin writing a book without knowing exactly what the title will be once they finish. They may give the book a ‘working title.’ Other times, the author’s editor will suggest that the title be changed in order to better describe the subject or sell the book. This quiz is a shortened version of one created by Mental Floss and posted on Shelf Awareness. Please respond in the comments section of the post. I will publish the name of the lucky winner! Hint: I totally failed
