The search
Code:
title:"~\(.*\)"
will find all titles containing an open parenthesis followed by some number of characters then a closing parenthesis. The ~ character tells calibre that the search uses regular expressions. Regexp searches can match all sorts of patterns. See The Search Interface in calibre's documentation for more information on what kinds of searches are supported.
