You have The Temple of the Golden Pavilion and The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With The Sea twice!

I don't know how that happened! I *think* they were added by someone else as I was adding them myself. The list suggests that I didn't vote for the duplicates ... Sadly, I don't know how to remedy this. My first foray in to Listopia is a disaster! Sob.

Don't be discouraged -- it's a great list!

Duplicate editions of the same book being added is inevitable on virtually every list because rather than just voting for the editions already placed on the list, some people prefer to add books from their own bookshelves, which may include editions different from those already on the list. Librarians are able to combine duplicates, though ... I just did so. Problem solved! :)

ETA: I also took the liberty of including the photo of Mishima featured as his profile photo on Goodreads. -- If you don't want it to be here, though, just remove the link again (or tell me and I'll do it)!
