Okay, all you avid readers, I need help.

I need actual books that reference books or plays that don't actually exist in our world (but we perhaps wish they did) a la "The Swordsman Whose Name was not Death" from The Privilege of the Sword.

Yes, I'm up to something, although I'm not sure of the shape or viability of it yet.

I think the opera in The Lyre of Orpheus is actually E. T. A. Hoffmann's "King Arthur: or The Magnanimous Cuckold", though it is fictional. I love that book so much.

I believe that you are absolutely right. Thanks for the edit, I was having trouble finding it:-)
