Would another librarian with more experience/patience with tracking down book titles like to take a look at The Forked Tongue? A quick google author/title search makes me think it's not correct, but I don't know what it's supposed to be. Thanks!

It is a real book, but the author's name is just "Flagg", apparently. (Someone probably got hit by an autocomplete somewhere...!)

Or merged authors not realizing.

Doesn't mean anything. I merged the same author three times a couple hours ago, as I did multiple searches that imported more of her books. (Well, I merged more than that. But three times with that version of her name.)

Got another one: Under the Influence. WorldCat calls it a musical CD and summarizes it as stand-up comedy.
