This book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... is one story previously called The Bear Came Over the Mountain
This book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8... is a collection of stories.


The title is the same, the cover very similiar Away from Her by Alice Munro Away From Her Collection by Alice Munro

Do you think we could use 'Away From Her: Collection" for the 2nd one?

She won the "Literature Nobel Prize" so I was looking at her books figuring she was going to get some traffic.

That seems reasonable. More important: add Librarian's Notes to both versions making it clear they should not be combined, and notes to the text of both versions stating "Not to be confused with", etc.

Plot thickens
If you read the first reviewer's review from "The Collection" (4th papragraph) Away From Her: Collection she says it was originally this book Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage: Stories
How do we proove such things, so that I am confident that they could be combined?

Looks like the original book has 8 stories and the later one those 8 and 2 more. So not the same.
