Others have mentioned this, but it bears repeating. If the title has odd characters in it, try renaming the file. I got "Whose Body?" by Dorothy Sayers, and the file was named "Sayers - Whose Body?.mobi". I deleted the troublesome copy on the Kindle using Content Manager; plugged the Kindle into my computer via the USB; renamed the file on the computer; copied the new version to the Kindle's SD card, and YAY, it all worked. YMMV, of course, but it's a chance.
