Description

![Untitled](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/55302685/66143600-4a9e2000-e5bc-11e9-8a15-b724735fc701.png)

The subtitle takes up too much space in the edition list. Instead, if the edition title's the same as the book itself, then only the subtitle (or edition version - like 2nd edition) should appear - to be clicked on. Right now, if there's nothing in the edition's title, no subtitle appears. If the edition and book titles are different, then the format should look the same as when clicked on the edition - large title, small subtitle underneath.

Research direction

Start by locating the edition list rendering and compare it with the edition view shown after clicking an edition. Confirm the title and subtitle behavior for matching and different book and edition titles, including editions with no title and version-only subtitles; done means the list matches the requested formatting and remains clickable.
