I had no idea who wrote,"The Color Purple", but aced the rest of that section. What is it with people's love affair with,"The Catcher in the Rye"? Its a sloppy piece of writing. This is one of the very times I was totally clueless about the answer to the bonus. 42/50 finally made Hawking. Hell yeah!!!!

Have to be honest, I never read it. I know it just appears on most lists of classic must-read books, so I included it. I absolutely hated Literature in school. I love reading, but I really don't care what emotions the author tries to convey when he writes about the blue curtains in a room.... Enough of my rambling. Excellent score! And the answer to the bonus is Erwin Schrödinger. Thanks for watching!
