That's what the Kindle does if you have the names in the natural form FirstName LastName; it sorts by whatever is at the beginning. I went through and changed them all to be LastName, FirstName so that it sorted them properly. Then I got a Kobo which sorts them properly and had to put them back to the natural form.

At the time I was working on an ebook of a print book by the French author George du Maurier. I went in to the local library to see if they had any books by him. They didn't, but do have books by his grand-daughter, Daphne du Maurier. I looked for her books on the shelves with author's names starting with D, but found that they are placed in the shelves with author's names starting with M. That is, they are filed in the Launceston General Library as Maurier, Daphne du, rather then du Maurier, Daphne. If that library had books by George du Maurier they would have been filed as Maurier, George du rather than du Maurier, George. I hope this makes sense to you, and helps you to understand the thread heading. |
