Newbie myself, but I used XML Notepad to look at the OPF.

I'm just curious is the dc:description should look this complicated?


Code:
<div><p class="description">Split from:</p><p class="description"></p><div><p class="description"><strong>Synopsis:</strong></p><p class="description">COMPLETE WORKS OF CHARLES DICKENS <br>(Definitive Edition NOOK) <br>WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER <br></p><p class="description">Over 25,000 pages of Charles Dickens <br></p><p class="description">Includes Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, Christmas Carol, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Hard Times, Tale of Two Cities, Great Expectations and More!<br></p><p class="description">PARTIAL TABLE OF CONTENTS<br></p><p class="description">TABLE OF CONTENTS<br>THE POSTHUMOUS PAPERS OF THE PICKWICK CLUB<br>OLIVER TWIST<br>THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF NICHOLAS NICKLEBY<br>THE OLD CURIOSITY SHOP<br>BARNABY RUDGE<br>MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT<br>DOMBEY AND SON<br>DAVID COPPERFIELD<br>BLEAK HOUSE<br>HARD TIMES<br>LITTLE DORRIT<br>A TALE OF TWO CITIES<br>GREAT EXPECTATIONS<br>OUR MUTUAL FRIEND<br>THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD<br>A CHRISTMAS CAROL<br>THE CHIMES<br>THE CRICKET ON THE HEARTH<br>THE BATTLE OF LIFE<br>THE HAUNTED MAN AND THE GHOST'S BARGAIN<br>CHRISTMAS STORIES FROM ‘HOUSEHOLD WORDS” AND “ALL THE YEAR ROUND”<br>MASTER HUMPHREY'S CLOCK<br>THE LAMPLIGHTER'S STORY<br>A HOUSE TO LET<br>THE SIGNAL-MAN<br>THE HAUNTED HOUSE<br>TO BE READ AT DUSK<br>THE TRIAL FOR MURDER<br>HUNTED DOWN<br>A HOLIDAY ROMANCE<br>GEORGE SILVERMANS'S EXPLANATION<br>AMERICAN NOTES FOR GENERAL CIRCULATION<br>PICTURES FROM ITALY</p><p class="description">If you find any inappropriate content, please report it to Barnes &amp; Noble. </p><p class="description"><strong>William Makepeace Thackeray:</strong></p><p class="description">"A national benefit, and to every man and woman who reads it a personal kindness."</p><p class="description"><strong>Biography:</strong></p><p class="description">Charles John Huffam Dickens (7 February 1812 – 9 June 1870) was an English writer and social critic who is generally regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian period and the creator of some of the world's most memorable fictional characters.<br></p><p class="description">During his lifetime Dickens' works enjoyed unprecedented popularity and fame, but it was in the twentieth century that his literary genius was fully recognized by critics and scholars. His novels and short stories continue to enjoy an enduring popularity among the general reading public.<br></p><p class="description">Born in Portsmouth, England, Dickens left school to work in a factory after his father was thrown into debtors' prison. Though he had little formal education, his early impoverishment drove him to succeed. He edited a weekly journal for 20 years, wrote 15 novels and hundreds of short stories and non-fiction articles, lectured and performed extensively, was an indefatigable letter writer, and campaigned vigorously for children's rights, education, and other social reforms.<br></p><p class="description">Dickens was regarded as the 'literary colossus' of his age. His creative genius has been praised by fellow writers—from Leo Tolstoy to G. K. Chesterton and George Orwell—for its realism, comedy, prose style, unique characterisations, and social criticism.</p></div><p></p></div>
