A blast of a read!
The trend during the last few years towards stories about stupid people brought us such non-classics (but entertaining reads) as "The 776 Stupidest Things Ever Said", "The Darwin Awards", and others. But what few people know is that such stories were circulating 1000 years ago in the Sufi storytelling tradition. These stories are the equivalent of our "Urban Legends". Oddly enough, as I read ...

A great collection of stories!
This is the only book I've read by Gerald Durrell and it is great! The stories are so wonderfully told with a combination of keen human insight and the ability to laugh at it. He had a wonderful talent for descriptive writing. You can almost taste the dinner he writes about. Most of the stories are short and relatively light in nature, but be prepared for the last story in the book. It's the ...

technically brilliant artist while at the same time one of the most obscure
For me growing up in the 80's, going to art schools all those years, Michael Golden was the best in the bizz as far as i was concern. Problem was his work was hard to come by..... as he was usually doing one a year comic annuals most of the time. Michael golden was a phenamonal technician with his fantatic pen & ink stylings.. This book shed light on Michael i previously didn't know...... ...
The Inimitable Jeeves (Audiofy Digital Audiobook Chips)
2 reviews

, 1999
Insanely Funny!
Listening to the Frederick Davidson readings of the Jeeves books is the best way of experiencing them. The characters literally come alive before one's ears. Mr. Davidson slips in and out of a character and an accent like some sort of linguistic chameleon. The effect is, to put it mildly, incredible, especially to our American ears unaccustomed to the rich variety of dialects in British ...

The Twenties produced several notable works of fiction, and right there in with the best of them is this, the most delightful of all the Jeeves and Wooster entries. Composed of a running series of short stories originally published in the Strand and Cosmopolitan magazines, "The Initimable Jeeves" achieves its distinction through the remarkable quality level of the stories combined with the ...

Cervantes no tuvo sino un propósito en la composición de su obra, y lo dice; mas sin saberlo formó una estatua de dos caras, la una que mira al mundo real, la otra al ideal; la una al corpóreo, la otra al impalpable.
