@sophocles,
Anagram solvers are very useful but don't always work well with proper nouns, titles, etc. In this case I looked at "1930 in literature" on Wikipedia and then continued through the thirties until I found the answer.
I agree it is annoying when people ask for straight answers but most people really interested in quizzing need some help to learn how to search the vast range of information out there in an effective way!
