Niki E (esurientes) | 4 comments Hi,
I have an edition of One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest that is missing accurate metadata on GR. It doesn’t help that it shares an ISBN with a later movie tie-in cover.
Could these details be added to the edition description?

ISBN: 0330235648
URL: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
(Green front cover with two playing cards: Queen and King. Not the cover showing Jack Nicholson in the film)
It’s the 1975 2nd printing of the 1973 Picador edition

Please add:
Page count: 255 pages

Back cover:
Chief Bromden, half American-Indian, whom the authorities believe is deaf and dumb, tells the story of a mental institution ruled by Big Nurse, on behalf of the all-powerful Combine. Into this terrifying, grey world comes McMurphy, a brawling gambling man, who wages total war on behalf of his cowed fellow-inmates. What follows is at once hilarious and heroic, tragic and ultimately liberating. Since its first publication, eleven years ago, Ken Kesey’s astonishing first novel has achieved the status of a contemporary classic.

Would've been quicker to add this request to the Book & Author Page Issues folder, just so you know for the future.

Only one book has the isbn, and this edition is already marked as the alternative cover edition. Added description & page number.

As the cover, isbn & details match the 1973 edition we don't add the 1975 edition which is a reprint.
