I have merged these authors. The various works will also be combined, but that will take a bit, as there are a lot of works to combine.

Joseph V M (josephvm) | 150 comments thank you :)


Carol, She's so Novel ꧁꧂  | 2549 comments Just a query - I thought it should be Baroness Orczy or possibly Baroness Emmuska Orczy as that was the name she published under?

Same rule as Mrs. Henry Wood & Mrs. Oliphant

You're right. In most of the published works, her name is provided as Baroness Orczy. But Goodreads only have one detailed profile and that's Emmuska Orczy


Carol, She's so Novel ꧁꧂  | 2549 comments That is so & there is a very old Librarians note on the Baroness's profile saying the title shouldn't be used. But I did challenge this successfully for NZ author Lady Barker

Relevant note in Librarians Manual https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/... Scroll down until you get to Mahatma Ghandi.

I think it would be best to let rivka rule on this one.
