So Amazon is lying...? "The only novel from MacArthur Genius Award winner, Aleksandar Hemon -- the National Book Critics Circle Award winning The Lazarus Project."

Dang, they totally ARE lying! Not shocked, it's just super weird since the publisher usually submits the copy... (???)

How do I get Amazon to say I have a Nobel Prize?

Depending on metadata oversight, someone at Viking could probably have it show up on retail sites for a time. ЁЯШЙ They just put something in the database, it gets pushed out, and it appears in the world... until it is changed and overwritten.

That copy is definitely coming from the publisher, as metadata almost always does. It's pushed out identically to all retailers. You'll see the same copy on B&N (https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/lazarus-project-aleksandar-hemon/1100361780) and even Bookshop (https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-lazarus-project-aleksandar-hemon/587179?ean=9781594483752). Very strange that someone at Riverhead made the mistake, likely years ago.
