Oh yes, it does.

Aww, this's suck. I search for data from the 2 books that not written by Trinity as travel writer, but don't have any :(

So no it cannot be solved unless you know if any of the other books have another name to add to the name trinity

Ren (RenPuspita) | 107 comments Oh, can you solve it? Since even the name is the same, they're different authors.

There is no way to disambiguate single-name authors.

Ren (RenPuspita) | 107 comments Have the same problem.
The author page of Trinity : http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/... ; list this 2 books :

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...

The books not written by the travel writer Trinity, and I think writted by someone else. Please separate it. Thanks!

Aoife (black-cat-Aoife) | 17 comments The author page of Mark Steel (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...) lists these two books

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34...
but they are not by the Independent-columnist Mark Steel. It must be a different one.

Also concerning Mark Steel (The columnist)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
and
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
seem to be the same edition and can be merged.
