    What do the book description pages say ? Are they from the same publisher ?

    I'm looking at Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier, there are two of them. I don't want the audiobook but, when I look down there, there is one that says unabridged and has the same cover art as the more expensive one in the book (as in, books read with your eyes) section.

     

    The book description says nothing about what difference there is between the two. The more expensive one has 2 reviews in the description along with what may have been put on the back cover, the less expensive one has the same exact info...minus one review.
