Michael Toleno (michael_toleno) | 102 comments EDIT: This may be no longer necessary. I see that there are several listings of this book, which should probably be combined and extra listings deleted. I have found a listing here https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... that already has the page count of 96. I'm leaving this request open in case a librarian would like to address the publication date issue or clean up the several separate entries.

For this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
please add the page count, 96, from Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/fastingne...

This edition has no ISBN. The ASIN (already on Goodreads, not verified elsewhere) is B000RVKIKY. This particular edition is not available on Amazon.

Do I need to make a separate request for the publication date to be changed? If so, where?

The original publication date (in England) is 1954. The first American edition was published in 1969. The trend on Goodreads seems to be to list the publication date of the specific edition (1972 according to the book itself on Internet Archive, not 1973) AND the book's original publication date (1954), NOT the first-run date of a particular edition (1969).

Thank you!

I'll mark this one "closed" after a few more days.
