When I search by the author name Amara Lakhous, I only find:

Scontro di civilta' per un ascensore in piazza Vittorio
ISBN: 8876417168

and yet this one is also in the database, so it should show up, too:

Clash of Civilizations Over an Elevator in Piazza Vittorio
ISBN 1933372613

Jennifer, There are 3 editions of that book. Here are all of them:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/edition...

You need to scroll down and click on see all (in this instance) 2 (editions)

The editions are combined.

Should they not be combined? Are they entirely different books?

They look the same to me but I might be having language issues.

P.S. The edition with the most reviews will always be the one that shows. But you can select whichever edition you'd like to rate &/or review or put on any shelf.
