I had read 15, had heard of 7 and the rest never heard of. Typically, I fell down on some American stuff. But really I don't know how much such answers reveal about anyone. For example, I have a fairly dim memory of some of the stuff I read 50 or more years ago. OTOH when it came to the plays I hadn't just read them; I seen stage productions, multiple times for some of them.
Then do you get Brownie points for reading some of them in their original languages?
It's a very rough test indeed of whether one is or is not well read.
