Anyone fancy playing "The Books, Plays and Poems Title Game"? (I'm reliably informed that there are, apparently, similar amusements to be had employing song-titles on another board, somewhere.) The names of the authors would be good, as well, but not essential.
For instance:
'The White Goddess' - Robert Graves
'The Woman In White' - Wilkie Collins
next?

'The Woman In White' - Wilkie Collins "Little Women" ~ Louisa May Alcott Does the game go like that?
Hope 'pluralized' tenses are accepted. I quite like this story.

Don't think you can 'pluralize' a tense, actually...

Don't think you can 'pluralize' a tense, actually... Oh, do you 'pluralise' them then? Just kidding. I know what you meant. And don't think I'm not scoping out YOUR posts to find something 'grammatical' to bring to your attention. Oh, something tells me I'll be searching forever...'Lord of the Flies' -- William Golding "The King And Me I" ~ Rodgers and HammersteinPlay. Musical. Same 'animal', right? If not, Nudnick will correct me.

If not, Nudnick will correct me.Ahem. I think the musical was based on something called 'Anna And The King Of Siam', by one Margaret Landon.
