Two separate authors with the same name

[Gerrie]

I am currently reading a book called A Pearl Comb for a Lady (PCFL) by Julia Bell. There is a Julia Bell who is a Goodreads author, and PCFL is listed on her page as one of her books. On Ms. Bell's Goodreads page, part of her bio reads as follows: "I am a Senior Lecturer at Birkbeck, University College of London where I teach on the MA Creative Writing…."

She is not the Julia Bell who wrote PCFL. The name is common enough, (and they are both British) so it understandably would be thought that there is only one British author by that name. The bio for the Julia Bell who wrote PCFL reads as follows on Amazon: "Julia Bell lives in West Yorkshire, England and has two children and five grandchildren. She has been a qualified nurse, training at St James's Hospital in Leeds and also Darlington Memorial Hospital. She also spent six years working for the Prison Service."

Is there any way Goodreads could set up two separate author pages for the two Julia Bells? PCFL is a lovely book, and I would like to see the Julia Bell who wrote it get the proper recognition if possible.

Paula, I apologize for taking so long to reply to your post. First, thank you so much for responding so quickly and so helpfully. I really appreciate it. I would be happy to add anything that might be helpful about this book and author, as I enjoyed her book and am planning to write a review. However, could you instruct me on how to add this information, such as ASIN/ISBN and format of the book. I did click on the "edit details," and filled out the Metadata form, but I don't think that's what you're asking me to do. So, I will be glad to follow any directions you could provide as to how to add the information you requested.

Your welcome, you need to be a librarian to edit book details, if you post the information here someone can add it.

Hi Paula, I hope this is the information that you want. I got it from Amazon.

This is the description of the book from Amazon:

A PEARL COMB FOR A LADY is a romance through time.

Christabel is feisty with an overactive imagination. Aged 18 and living during the Battle of Waterloo, she is in love with a soldier who only wants to use her to advance his military career.

Victoria, 25, living in the mid-nineteenth century is sweet-natured but haunted by the loss of her child.

Finally there is Jenny, 34, a 21st Century career woman who is unable to sacrifice her pride and forgive the man she loves.

The pearl comb weaves its way through the centuries as though trying to find its true owner. And although these three women come into possession of the pearl comb, only one will wear it at her wedding.
