Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

Re-reading this for my film/lit discussion group. I tried adding the actual ed. I'm re-reading, but GR auto-associated it with the other ed. I read in the past. (More of a note to self, in case I wonder why I can't find this actual ed. on my bookshelf in the future.)

Excerpts from a few classical literary articles over the past 3 generations. Helps to give some understanding to the background, importance, and message of the book.

I read this for work, after having read it in college many years ago. I enjoyed it more knowing the sad ending already, and being more mature and resigned to my own fate. I was also reminded of it by being part the way through Orhan Pamuk's The Museum of Innocence, which in some ways is a very similar novel, about the unthinking elite milieu of an important, decadent city, about a love affair doomed by social prescriptions against it and especially the weak-willed centre-of-consciousness male character who can't give up his social privileges for the sake of love.
