Do any of you get annoyed by factual errors in novels? You read something and you know that it's wrong, and then you can't stop thinking about it and try to explain it away (unlikely, but not impossible? / weird magical realism? / maybe this is a fantasy novel after all?).
I suppose this must happen to historians or doctors all the time, and I really don't envy you.
