Author profiles in different languages/alphabets should *never* be merged. Readers need to be able to search (and find) the author name as it appears on the cover of their book.
for example – i bought an kindle edition of 'The Moomins and the Great Flood' on russian. then i open book on kindle and turn on 'check book as currently reading on goodreads' switch. but in my profile appear Маленькие тролли и большое наводнение, not a The Moomins and the Great Flood.so i wanted to know what to do with that different books profiles – add books with just a couple checkins from Туве Янссон page as another edition to a matched books in Tove Jansson page?
Tove Jansson needs to be added as primary author and editions combined. Your bookshelves will still show the edition you have shelved, but the author will be Tove Jansson. And thank you for providing the English language translations so that I can combine them correctly.Got the 4 titles in Post #1. If there are others, let us know.

Today I discovered that Amazon has a series about Moomin in Kindle format in Russian. But the author is listed in russian too – Туве Янссон. So there appeared a separate page of the author – Туве Янссон
Is that possible to merge this author page with the general Tove Jansson page?
Also all russian Moomin books on Amazon has a their own book profiles (not an editions) on goodreads, like:
Маленькие тролли и большое наводнение = The Moomins and the Great Flood
Когда прилетит комета = Comet in Moominland
Шляпа Волшебника = Finn Family Moomintroll
Мемуары Муми-папы = Moominpappa's Memoirs
Also sorry for my english :)
