Susan (dabblewit) | 2 comments I scanned an ISBN (9780091795153) which should be "A Week in September" by Sebastian Faulks. It came up as "Memoir" by Seb Faulks and gives the original title as "Memoir (Aiport/Export). It is obviously the same book.

When I Google "Memoir (Aiport/Export)" I get a few results (the Goodreads reference and a some secondhand listings which then refer to "A Week in September"). Any that show a cover image show "A Week in September". I can't find any reference to "Memoir (Aiport/Export)" on Sebastian Faulks's website.

Should I change the Goodreads listing to "A Week in September" by Sebastian Faulks with a note about the alternative title, combine the editions and delete the author Seb Faulks?

funny, huh?

so i think it's okay to merge seb faulks to sebastian faulks and rename the title to a week in september. :)

Susan (dabblewit) | 2 comments Thanks Nenangs. That's what I thought, but it's good to have backup
