    Sorry guys, but I think you are looking at this wrong.
    Aren't the nine nine authors names on the front of the book the ones that are required and you need to match these names to the nine short stories?
    Have a look at this site.
    There is a HINTS tab. Looks like you need to read and analyse the stories and then guess at which one was written by which writer.

    Ahh! You know it would have helped if I looked at the front cover... doh! We have still got one so might be worth keeping the thread open to see if anyone fancies a guess at the other four?

    It's still a valid comp (or 2 comps) for someone who wants to put the effort in.

    I thought because the purchase of the book would be required (to read the stories etc) - the comp would not be allowed to stay on the board?:confused: I'm not sure.

    On the page you linked to, the flash bit has the book in online format, to be viewed for free... you can make it full screen and click through the pages.

    When I googled Political Obligations, George Klosko came up, but he isn't one of the options.
