The grounds of British literature are fertile. From the works of Shakespeare and Donne to Milton and the contemporary writers of today, there are so many British books out there, you could stick them all on a map. And that’s exactly what Travelzoo has done -- this literary map game it created is just the ticket for bookworms out there.

Featuring 11 of some of the finest entries in the canon of British literature, it’s a celebration of all that’s great and good about British fiction. What’s more, share it on social media and enter into a prize draw to win a literary-themed holiday.

So, if you can tell your Brontë from your Blyton and your Amis from your Austen, take the test and find out. All you have to do is map each of these books to the city or region in which it’s set or that served as the writer’s inspiration.
