Serious issue with Kafka's The Castle

[Keith]

I ran a search against the forum to see if anyone was aware of this and didn't find anything. The "most popular" edition of this is The Castle (Dramatization) (Paperback) presumably simply because it was, quite unfortunately, the first one entered. Unfortunately because, in all probability, not one of the 3,253 reviews entered is actually of this 59-page script from 2001, but rather of any of the myriad editions of the actual novel.

Unfortunately too, while I know exactly what data would have to be added to the record to cut down the confusion, "you can't separate the most popular edition of a work." So it's stuck there unless every other edition is separated from it and recombined into another listing - which will assuredly be re-combined into this one again, recreating the same problem.

I'm a very part-time librarian here, so I ask, hat in hand: does anyone else have a better solution? This all seems rather ironically Kafkaesque.

The same thing is the case for Crime and Punishment (Most popular version is the audiobook). That said, the only thing that could probably be done to 'fix' it, is for a super to delete the book, so that all the reviews go to the next one in line. Which may or may not recreate the same problem.
