    I never remember the author’s name. I have consistently gotten it wrong in nearly every quiz. Lol

      Everyone knows him as Cervantes, even though his full name is Miguel de Cervantes. I live in Castilla-La Mancha and everywhere is Quijote… I even know a lady called Dulcinea… not a common name btw.

      Edit. Just read this and sorry might have come across overly pedantic. I just got up and my brain is still toast.

        Well there’s probably not a lot of other well-know people with the last name “(de) Cervantes”. Same in Germany, no one ever uses “Johann Wolfgang von Goethe”, it’s always just “Goethe”.
