I hope I am doing this right. On the details for 'The Stories of Eva Luna' by Isabel Allende (which I am currently reading) I noticed it states that it was published in 1920. The first publication I believe is actually in 1989, with the English publication being in 1991.

The culprit edition was added by a bot in 2012 and two years later the 1920 pub date was added by the same bot. Have reverted the date change.

Can't find the ISBNs with the correct date in any reliable source, so I just left the edition without a pub date and cover.
