I don't think that I have ever read a classic whose author's surname begins with 'I.' Have you?
Instead of assuming that there is no I, I'll fill in the gap of C, which could be filled with 'Cervantes' or 'Chekov.'
My favourite author of all time:
Pierre Ambrose Choderlos de LACLOS, (who wrote Les liaisons dangereuses.)
Oates, Joyce Carol

Quevedo Y Vegas, Francisco Gomez de
