Protagonist Trivia Answers

Everyone who answered last night’s trivia gets an A for effort. I think if I had done this cold, I would have gotten four answers correct.  As it is, the main reason I remember most of these names is that I play a lot of Sporcle quizzes about literary characters. It’s funny how you can remember so much about a story, but the name of the main character just falls right out of your head. I think it’s kind of like forgetting your own phone number.  Anyway, here they are:

1. Billy Pilgrim ““ Slaughterhouse 5
2. Valentine Michael Smith ““ Stranger in a Strange Land
3. Jo March ““ Little Women, et al.
4. Denver ““ Beloved
5. Hester Prynne ““ The Scarlet Letter
6. Henry Fleming ““ The Red Badge of Courage
7. Holden Caulfield ““ Catcher in the Rye
8. Scout Finch ““ To Kill a Mockingbird
9. Jose Arcadio Buendia ““ 100 years of Solitude
10. Leopold Bloom ““ Ulysses
