Z-squared | 8576 comments Are dramatizations considered books? Adaptations? What is the policy?

Monique (kadiya) | 1097 comments I wouldn't NAB it, personally. To me, this sounds like an audiobook with several narrators. But, I could be wrong on that.

I agree. An edge case, certainly, but this one seems to be on the keep side of the edge.


Z-squared | 8576 comments if i could find the name of the person who adapted it (i can't, although I certainly tried), then that person would be made primary and the edition would be separated, am I correct? just for future reference.

I'm not sure. It says "dramatized"; does that mean the content is not directly from the book, or just that it is being read by dramatic actors? I have seen examples of both in past.

Edit: The WolrdCat page makes me lean towards the latter. http://www.worldcat.org/title/jane-ey...
