I wonder what other books and writers are referred to in Walter Moers City of dreaming books (Die Stadt der traümenden Bücher). I just recognized one writer, the one called Golgo but the full name is an anagram. But it was the Mineralfarbenlehre that gave him away ;-) (Hope that wasn't tooo much of a spoiler...)

Did anyone recognize anyone/anything else?

I read the book in German but my German knowledge is mostly passive, I can't really write in German. I don't know how much of the names survived the translation to English, for those who have read the translation.
