Il semble que vous deviez utiliser une clé composite pour votre table WRITERS. Exemple (testé avec Oracle 12c et 11g, dbfiddle ici ):
-- 4 authors
create table author ( authorid primary key, fname, lname )
as
select 1, 'fname_1', 'lname_1' from dual union all
select 2, 'fname_2', 'lname_2' from dual union all
select 3, 'fname_3', 'lname_3' from dual union all
select 4, 'fname_4', 'lname_4' from dual ;
-- 7 books
create table books ( isbn primary key, title )
as
select '978-1449324451', 'title_1' from dual union all
select '978-1449324452', 'title_2' from dual union all
select '978-1449324453', 'title_3' from dual union all
select '978-1449324454', 'title_1_4' from dual union all
select '978-1449324455', 'title_2_4' from dual union all
select '978-1449324456', 'title_3_4' from dual union all
select '978-1449324457', 'title_4_4' from dual ;
-- suppose that 4 books are written by one and the same author
create table bookauthor( authorid, isbn )
as
select A.authorid, B.isbn
from author A
join books B on A.authorid = substr( B.title, length( B.title ), 1 ) ;
Ajoutez quelques contraintes à la table BOOKAUTHOR et vérifiez son contenu :
-- authorid, isbn
alter table bookauthor
add (
constraint ba_fk1 foreign key( authorid ) references author( authorid )
, constraint ba_fk2 foreign key( isbn ) references books( isbn )
, constraint ba_pk primary key ( authorid, isbn )
) ;
SQL> select * from bookauthor;
AUTHORID ISBN

Code DDL "original" (avec des modifications mineures) -> INSERT échoue
create table writers (
authorid varchar2( 4 )
, lname varchar2( 10 )
, fname varchar2( 10 )
, isbn char( 14 )
, title varchar2( 30 ) constraint title_nn not null
, constraint wt_pk primary key ( authorid )
, constraint wt_fk foreign key( isbn ) references books( isbn )
);
INSERT INTO writers
SELECT authorid, fname, lname, isbn, title
FROM author
JOIN bookauthor USING(authorid)
JOIN books USING(isbn);
-- ORA-00001: unique constraint (...WT_PK) violated
-- author 4 with 4 books!
Code DDL suggéré (et tests) :
create table writers2 (
authorid varchar2( 4 )
, lname varchar2( 10 )
, fname varchar2( 10 )
, isbn char( 14 )
, title varchar2( 30 ) constraint title_nn2 not null
, constraint wt_pk2 primary key ( authorid, isbn )
, constraint wt_fk2 foreign key( isbn ) references books( isbn )
);
INSERT INTO writers2
SELECT authorid, fname, lname, isbn, title
FROM author
JOIN bookauthor USING(authorid)
JOIN books USING(isbn);
-- 7 rows inserted.
SÉLECTIONNER à partir de WRITERS2 :

Vous ne savez pas pourquoi vous auriez besoin de la table WRITERS, car vous pouvez générer ses données en exécutant une requête.
