I couldn't remember if "every unhappy family is miserable in its own way" was War and Peace or Anna Karinninninninninnanna, for instance. And a few of the questions just made me say, "Uh ... whut?" But I didn't do any googling for answers, either.

| The Librarian You scored 75 erudition! |
| Congratulations! You're well above average when it comes to your knowledge of English grammar, history, and literature. You may have missed a few questions, but if you keep your studies up and stay away from genre fiction, we'll have you ready for Stanford in no time! Who knows, we just might be reading your columns in Talk of the Town a few years from now. |

BTW, Les Miserables was a good show at the National Theater last night, you and Lythandra should go see it if you can.

Not only do you know your subjects from your objects and your definite from your indefinite articles, but you've got quite a handle on the literature and the history of the language as well. Huzzah, and well done! The English snobs of Boston salute you.

I bet that the three point difference is the result of the Anna Karinina question. Either that or calling the New Yorker "that magazine with comics that aren't very funny."
