Smile Merry Xmas

Hi, I am George from Australia. This is my first post - like so many readers these days I bought Kindle, and therefore started using Calibre.
However I do not understand why anybody would want to organize the authors according to the other name instead of the surname...

I hope someone can help with this. I tried but couldn’t find the answer to my question:

Basically, I would prefer if the Calibre Library on my PC was created as it is (the default), but the authors surnames were always first, followed by a coma, and then the other part/s of the name/s:

Andersn, Poul
Christie, Agatha
Dumas, Alexandre
Fitzgerald, F. Scott
Modesitt, L. E.

(The subfolders can be as they are)

The same I would like to have displayed in the Calibre main window - the Title as it is, but the Author(s) names organized alphabetically according to the Surnames.

Can you please explain what I need to change, if possible...

Thanks

George
