Amazon has George Gissing for The Odd Woman: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1523...For reprints of older books, it happens regularly that title or author have spelling mistakes, as seems to be the case here.
Amazon is also inheriting all the errors we have here. We're reading the Gissing book in our book club, so we'd appreciate a correction. Thanks.
I think this book is Gissing's. It appears to be a republish of a public domain book and is mis-titled. I will combine with the Gissing work.

Gissing: ISBN-13: 978-1582872117
ISBN-10: 1582872112
Godwin book already has its own entry:
http://www.amazon.com/Odd-Woman-Novel...
They are already combined. That book has a different ISBN*, so I'm not going to add that cover.I couldn't find a cover for the ISBN you gave on either Amazon, AbeBooks or The Book Depository.
*Not to mention it's from a different publisher entirely. Oxford World's Classics have very distinctive covers, not used by other publishers.
