    Author's first name begins with "J", he was European, born in 1892, and remember the anagram is not his name, but the title of one of his novels

    Uhh... I haven't figured it out yet.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?

    The last word of the novel's title is not an English word, but one belonging to a language he created.... I'm almost giving it away

    Great. It isn't a word. That is going to get me a long way.

    Four words in total. Three short English words, and a fourth word that is not English

    I'm afraid it's not. Keep working on it. I know you can

    Another clue: the third word is "of" and the non-English word begins with "B".... I'm really giving it away this time ... well.... I think.
