Since he writes in English, I'm going to say that he would count for the U.K. (Scotland).

If I haven't started claiming my points on my European trip yet, can I change my itenerary? I had planned to do classic children's books with my kids, but they won't cooperate. Therefore, I want to read my grown-up books from a couple of different countries.

That's fine with me. Just post your updated itinerary in the Itinerary folder. I'll update your list of countries in my scoring spreadsheet based on the new message there.

Help! I didn't see this thread and I read Michel Faber for the Netherlands, 2 countries ago. Fantastic Fiction lists him as being from the Netherlands and Goodreads says he is a "Dutch writer of fiction". I don't suppose you might reconsider your ruling here Sam?
