Whose work has the most adaptations, F. Scott Fitzgerald or Franz Kafka? Who courted the most scandal, Colette or James Joyce? Pit 32 great modern writers against one another with these clever and beautifully illustrated cards, ranking each author by their commercial success, critical acclaim, biopic factor, shock factor, output, and adaptations. Presented in a book-shaped box, this set comes from the culture mavens at London's Magma boutiques.
