Can't remember whether or not this title has a full stop. Author was American, I think. Can someone who knows "move" it if necessary? Quill 00:05, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Original Title

[edit]

Judging from what I can see in Google, the original title was: Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris. Flowers for Mrs Harris was the U.K. title. I've changed the text to consider the American edition titles as the 'originals', since he was an American author, but to mention the original U.K. titles.

I know I'm answering something from a long time ago, but the editor who says "the original title was ..., but in the UK it was different" seems to missed the idea that the Wikipedia reader could be anywhere in the world. We haven't been told where the book was published. Wouldn't it be better to say that the book was published as "Mrs 'Arris ..." in the US (I take it that the editor has assumed the default country as being her own) and "Mrs Harris ... " in the UK?

“characters revealed to have hidden hearts”

[edit]

What does this mean? Presumably it's a phrase from the book but to a casual reader of the page it's a little confusing. Perhaps we should put "hidden hearts" into quotes and follow it with some explanatory phrase like 'by which Mrs Harris means, to be secretly a kind person' or whatever. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ambrosechapel (talkcontribs) 08:18, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
