mlady_rebecca | 591 comments It looks like books written by author Karen Blixen under the pen name of Isak Dinesen are unevenly distributed between the two profiles. It appears that all the books in common should be moved to Isak Dinesen, but I don't want to step on any toes. I saw a librarian note making the opposite decision on one edition of one of her books.

If anyone wants to fix this, feel free. Otherwise I'll try to get back to it at some point. I was just trying to find a certain short story by the author when I tripped over this mess.

What name were they originally published under? For each book, the name under which it was originally published should be primary for all editions, and any other name on that edition's cover should be secondary.
