5.1 - Baby, Remember My Name

Cher, Madonna, Sting, Adele…. These award-winning recording artists are know by one name. Read a book by an author who uses a one-word name. One qualifying contributor in a work by multiple authors will work.
ex. Voltaire, Xinran, Saki, Flea

Bea I need help with this one. Is there a way to search for a single named author?

TraceyL | 1069 comments I haven't been able to figure out how to search for single named authors.

In addition to the ones listed in the task, I know of Yoss who is a science fiction author. Madonna, Sting and Cher have also written books.

Thanks, Tracey. I found one...again a musician...Ice-T. I am going to read his biography.

I also found Erasmus, but the book I would like to read by him is not available to me.

Christine | 917 comments I just want to double check that this book will work for this task: The Sagas of Ragnar Lodbrok

Ben Waggoner is listed first as the translator, but the actual author is listed as Anonymous.

Thanks!

Heather(Gibby) (heather-gibby) | 1307 comments Would it be acceptable if someone wrote with a one name pen name, even when their true name is also credited on the book?
For example: Walter Pieterse: A Story Of Holland

Kathy KS | 2385 comments I've started a list on GR for this:
https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

I didn't mark every title by the authors I've added; feel free to add to the titles AND the authors included. Hopefully, this should help a lot of us.
