Precious Ramotswe, la prima – e unica – detective del Botswana, ha deciso, non proprio spontaneamente, di prendersi la sua prima vacanza. Lascia così le redini della Ladies' Detective Agency N. 1 alla sua co-direttrice, la signora Makutsi, desiderosa di mostrare le sue capacità professionali. Tuttavia, sorseggiare tè rosso sotto un grande albero di acacia senza fare altro non è ciò che più si addice alla signora Ramotswe, che ben presto si trova a interferire – di nascosto, crede lei – con l'importante nuovo caso affidato alla sua agenzia. E mentre indaga, quindi, sul passato di un grand'uomo la cui reputazione è stata messa in discussione, si dà da fare per approntare un futuro migliore per un ragazzino bisognoso in cui si è imbattuta, e cerca il modo migliore per parlare con la signora Makutsi della nuova, subdola, attività che la sua acerrima nemica, Violet Sephotho, ha avuto l'ardire di aprire: il Ladies' College Secretarial Business Studies N. 1... Riuscirà alla fine la signora Ramotswe a trarre almeno qualche benefico effetto da queste sue vacanze? \"Gli effetti benefici delle vacanze\" è il 16° caso della Ladies' Detective Agency N. 1, ma può essere letto e apprezzato indipendentemente dall'ordine della serie.

In Pianos and Flowers we are invited to glimpse a world long departed. In these stories, inspired by long-lost photographs, the lives of the people in the frame are imagined and then explored, layer by layer.\n\n\n\nThree sisters brought up in Penang, caught in the tide of war.\n\n\n\nA group of small boys in a Glasgow slum - their childhood blighted by poverty, their adult lives taking very different paths.\n\n\n\nA young woman's search for love in the unlikely realm of Egyptian antiquities.\n\n\n\nAnd through all of these photographs, and all of these stories, there runs the same refrain: the possibilities of love, of friendship, of happiness lie before us.

'It's comfort reading at its most soothing' Independent\n \n\n\n \n 'Funny, heartfelt and very readable' Good Housekeeping\n \n\n\n \n In this reimagined modern classic, prepare to meet a young woman who thinks she knows everything...\n \n\n\n Fresh from university, Emma Woodhouse triumphantly arrives home in Norfolk ready to embark on adult life with a splash. Not only has her sister, Isabella, been whisked away on a motorcycle up to London, but her astute governess, Miss Taylor is at a loose end, abandoned in the giant family pile, Hartfield, alongside Emma's anxiety-ridden father. Someone is needed to rule the roost and young Emma is more than happy to oblige.\n\n\n And there is plenty to delight her in the buzzing little village of Highbury. At the helm of her own dinner parties and instructing her new little protegee, Harriet Smith, Emma reigns forth. But there is only one person who can play with Emma's indestructible confidence, her old friend and inscrutable neighbour George Knightley - this time has Emma finally met her match?

It is summer in Scotland Street (as it always is) and for the habitues of Edinburgh's favourite street some extraordinary adventures lie in waiting. \n\nFor the impossibly vain Bruce Anderson - he of the clove-scented hair gel - it may finally be time to settle down, and surely it can only be a question of picking the lucky winner from the hordes of his admirers. The Duke of Johannesburg is keen to take his flight of fancy, a microlite seaplane, from the drawing board to the skies. Big Lou is delighted to discover that her young foster son has a surprising gift for dance but she is faced with big decisions to make on his and her futures. And with Irene now away to pursue her research in Aberdeen, her husband, Stuart, and infinitely long-suffering son, Bertie, are free to play. Stuart rekindles an old friendship over peppermint tea whilst Bertie and his friend Ranald Braveheart Macpherson get more they bargained for from their trip to the circus. And that's just the beginning . . .

The third book in Alexander McCall Smith's new DETECTIVE VARG series\n\nPerplexing, unfathomable and perhaps unimportant, the cases that Malmo's Department of Sensitive Crimes take on will test them to their limits.\n\nLife - and crime - is not always as it seems for Ulf Varg and the other fearless detectives in Malmo's Department of Sensitive Crimes. There are always surprising new cases to take on, and the latest batch is no exception. And that's not to mention Ulf's struggle to contain his feelings for his colleague Anna Bengsdotter. All in all, things are distinctly difficult in Malmo, and it seems up to Ulf and the Department to set them right.\n\n'McCall Smith's continuing warm-heartedness makes Ulf such unfailingly good company' Reader's Digest\n\n'Like AA Milne meets Karl Ove Knausgaard' Financial Times\n\n'Wonderfully soothing and relaxing' Daily Telegraph

Life is so unfair, and it sends many things to try Professor Dr Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld, author of Portuguese Irregular Verbs and pillar of the Institute of Romance Philology in the proud Bavarian city of Regensburg. There is the undeserved rise of his rival (and owner of a one-legged dachshund), Detlev Amadeus Unterholzer; the interminable ramblings of the librarian, Herr Huber; and the condescension of his colleagues with regard to his unmarried state. But when his friend Ophelia Prinzel takes it upon herself to match-make, and duly produces a cheerful heiress with her own Schloss, it appears that the professor's true worth is about to be recognised. Maddening, idiotic and hugely entertaining, von Igelfeld is an inspired comic creation.

As summer blooms in Edinburgh's gardens and Bertie Pollock's birthday appears on the horizon, all at 44 Scotland Street is not cake and sunshine. Newlywed Angus Lordie has been booked by his bride into what he must not call the loony bin; Bruce's first encounter with hot wax brings more anguish than he bargained for; and Bertie's birthday dreams of scout camp and a penknife look set to be replaced by a game of Royal Weddings and a gender-neutral doll. But fate, an amorous Bedouin and the Dubai Tourist Authority conspire to transport Bertie's mother Irene to a warmer - if not a better - place, and once again in Scotland Street the triumph of human kindness over adversity gives cause for celebration.

The latest instalment from the beloved THE NO. 1 LADIES' DETECTIVE AGENCY series\n\nCatch up on the latest from Mma Ramotswe, Mma Makutsi and other favourites in this new instalment of Alexander McCall Smith's The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series.\n\nAs the temperature rises in Gaborone, Precious Ramotswe, founder of the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, wonders whether the heat could be the reason that business is particularly slow. Luckily, a slower pace in life is her natural preference, unlike her colleague Mma Makutsi, who is alert to every passing observation and inclined to making snap decisions. With fewer cases to handle, Precious has time to contemplate her new neighbours, a couple who, by the sounds of it, have a rather volatile relationship . . .\n\nBut then a distant cousin of Mma Ramotswe's comes to the agency with a plea for help, and the ladies decide to pursue the issue together. Armed with Mma Ramotswe's circumspection and Mma Makutsi's sharp eye, they proceed with confidence and open hearts. What, after all, could be more straightforward than a family matter?\n\nMeanwhile, their colleague Charlie is behaving oddly, borrowing Mma Ramotswe's van and returning it in an unusual condition. Digging a little deeper, the explanation is both strange and extraordinary, and takes Charlie, along with Mma Ramotswe's husband, Mr J. L. B. Matekoni, on a hair-raising night-time expedition.\n\nIn the end, Precious is reminded of the need to view a picture from every angle, to accept the imperfections in people and situations, and then find a solution - preferably over a delicious slice of her friend Mma Potokwani's fruit cake.\n\n'Irresistible'\nThe Times\n\n'Every page contains a gem of wit and insight'\nScotsman

With a failed marriage behind her, La -- short for Lavender -- moves to the Suffolk countryside on the eve of the Second World War to nurse her broken heart. Lonely and at a loss, a friend encourages her to bring the villagers and the men from the local airbase together by forming an amateur orchestra. One of her musician recruits is Feliks, a handsome and enigmatic Polish refugee. A friendship begins to blossom between the two, and La finds her feelings stirring to life again.\n\nPoignant, tender and inspiring, La's Orchestra Saves the World celebrates the power of love and friendship in the shadow of the collective tragedy of war, as well as the extraordinary healing power of music.

The second book in Alexander McCall Smith's new DETECTIVE VARG series . . . \n\n'Reading the novel feels like a form of meditation . . . There is much to enjoy' Scotsman\n\n'Wonderfully soothing and relaxing' Telegraph\n\n'Heaven is in the detail with this sort of escapist writing. It's like AA Milne meets Karl Ove Knausgaard' Financial Times \n\nSpring is coming slowly to Sweden - though not quite as slowly as Detective Ulf Varg's promised promotion at the Department of Sensitive Crimes. For Varg, referred by his psychoanalyst to group therapy at Malmoe's Wholeness Centre, life now seems mostly a circle of self-examination, something which may or may not be useful when it comes to the nature of his profession and the particularly sensitive cases that have recently come to light.\n\nAll in a day's work for Detective Varg, except that one of his new investigations involves fellow detective Anna; it will require every ounce of self-discipline he has in order to remain professional. The other, more curious case is centred around internationally successful novelist Nils Personn-Cederstroem. According to his girlfriend, Cederstroem is being blackmailed - but by whom and for what reason?\n\nAccompanied by his irritating but kindly colleague Blomquist, Varg begins his enquiries and soon the answers fall neatly into place. Nothing and no one is ever that simple, however, and not for the first time he learns as much about his own emotional and moral landscape as he does about the motives of others. Now Varg must make a possibly life-changing decision. Will he choose his own happiness over that of his heart's desire?

Nonostante le abbondanti bevute di tè rosso, la signora Ramotswe ha fatto uno strano sogno. Incontrava uno sconosciuto ai piedi di un'acacia, una visione insolita, che al risveglio continua a turbarla. Ma in effetti sono giorni agitati per la proprietaria della Ladies' Detective Agency N.l. Fanwell, il giovane aiutante del signor JLB Matekoni - miglior meccanico di Gaborone nonché marito della signora Ramotswe - si è ingenuamente infilato in una brutta storia di ricettazione e ora rischia di finire in carcere; la signorina Makutsi, conquistato l'agognato titolo di signora dopo essere convolata a nozze con l'eterno fidanzato Phuti Radiphuti, si trova alle prese con il cantiere della nuova casa e con un costruttore che le ispira poca fiducia; la signora Potokwane, direttrice dell'orfanotrofio, deve contrastare gli ambiziosi progetti del signor Ditso Ditso, un benefattore fin troppo intrigante. E nell'ombra, come suo solito, trama la subdola Violet Sephotho, impudente avventuriera e nemica incallita della signora Ramotswe e della sua segretaria. Per fortuna ad aiutare la più abile detective del Botswana giunge un visitatore inatteso: Clovis Andersen, l'autore di \"I principi dell'indagine privata\", un libro considerato, perlomeno sulle rive del Limpopo, la Bibbia di ogni investigatore, o investigatrice, che si rispetti.

Welcome to Corduroy Mansions in Pimlico: a temple of Arts and Crafts architecture, with comforting, weathered brickwork and frankly frivolous dormer windows, it is home to a delightfully eccentric cast of Londoners.\n\nIn the top flat lives William, with a faithful ex-vegetarian dog named Freddie de la Hay and a freeloading son who he hopes will soon fly the nest. Four lively young women share the first-floor flat, including twinset-and-pearls Caroline from Cheltenham, Dee, vitamin addict and avid subscriber to Anti-oxidant News, and Jenny, a put-upon PA. And round the corner lives Oedipus Snark MP, possibly the world's only loathsome Lib Dem, who has succeeded in offending everyone he knows, and many others besides. But what dark revenge is being plotted by his mother, Berthea Snark, and by his girlfriend, Barbara Ragg...?

Ma finora non era mai successo di dover aiutare una cliente a ritrovare se stessa. Un fratello e una sorella di buon cuore hanno accolto una donna senza memoria del suo nome o di come è arrivata in Botswana. E così tocca a Precious Ramotswe e alla sua nuova socia, Grace Makutsi, scoprire l'identità della donna. Nel frattempo, nemmeno la maternità riesce a fermare l'esuberante Makutsi, che ha deciso di iniziare una nuova avventura: aprire il Caffè degli uomini avvenenti, un luogo perfetto per commensali alla moda. Eccitatissima per il progetto, ignora i numerosi avvertimenti da parte del marito Phuti Radiphuti e del suo idolo, nonché capo, Mma Ramotswe, trovandosi ad affrontare chef isterici, camerieri ubriachi e una serie di problemi inaspettati. Il signor J.L.B. Matekoni, marito di Precious Ramotswe, intanto, è costretto a fare una scelta difficile, che porterà grandi cambiamenti sia per la Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors sia per Ladies' Detective Agency No. 1. Con simpatia e infaticabile buonumore, Mma Ramotswe e le sue amiche si vedono attraverso questi grandi cambiamenti e scoprono lungo il cammino il significato della vera amicizia.

The characters in this delicious book are pushed to the point of no return and seek retribution. But how we get even is not always the best road to redemption. On the island of Mull, it takes an incomer to make the locals realise that they need to take matters into their own hands to maintain the community's reputation. In 'The Principles of Soap' the value of friendship overcomes adversity and opportunistic nepotism. In suburban Edinburgh opposing neighbours find out the hard way that the best method of dealing with a canine disturbance is not to bury one's head in the sand. And in the final tale we meet an author on the brink of public ruin who sees the error of his ways after an act of kindness saves the day.\n\n\n\nThese four tales show that the exquisite art of getting even is a skill that sees kindness win over malice. Tantalising and amusing, these stories show off a darker side but carry with them the author's trademark warmth and humour.

Per Precious Ramotswe, titolare della Ladies' Detective Agency N. 1 del Botswana, non c'è un attimo di pace. Non soltanto deve placare i sensi di colpa di un nuovo cliente, legati a qualche peccatuccio di gioventù, ma è anche costretta a far fronte all'infelicità che affligge alcune persone a lei care e all'indecisione del signor JLB Matekoni, proprietario dell'officina Speedy Motors, nonché suo fidanzato, il quale non si risolve a fissare la data delle nozze. E, come se non bastasse, in città ha aperto i battenti una nuova agenzia investigativa, gestita da un tale terribilmente tronfio e maschilista. Ma la signora Ramotswe non è certo il tipo che si abbatte... bastano un po' di buon senso, molta comprensione e una tazza di tè rosso. \"Un peana per le zebre\" è il 4° caso della Ladies' Detective Agency N. 1, ma può essere letto e apprezzato indipendentemente dall'ordine della serie.

Se vivi in Scozia devi, volente o nolente, saper apprezzare la pioggia, perché la chiave della felicità è ottenere il meglio da ciò che si ha a disposizione. Isabel Dalhousie lo sa bene ma non riesce proprio a mettere in pratica il saggio proposito: la sua vita è troppo affollata di pensieri e manca di azione. Le preoccupazioni che l'assillano sono, come al solito, legate agli altri, alle persone che le stanno più a cuore: trovare un appartamento per Grace, evitare alla giovane nipote Cat nuove delusioni d'amore, conservare l'amicizia con Jamie, l'ex fidanzato della nipote, nonostante il fatto che si sia irrimediabilmente innamorata di lui e le riesca davvero difficile mantenere le distanze.

Tornano a risuonare i familiari passi che tanto amiamo lungo Scotland Street. Ed eccoli tutti lì, gli abitanti più adorabili di Edimburgo: Elspeth e Matthew, avvolti in una nuvola di amore e premure all'inizio della loro vita matrimoniale, finché dopo una visita medica non ricevono una notizia scioccante; Domenica, che, per non lasciare nelle grinfie di Antonia il suo amico Angus, si unirà a un viaggio tra le colline toscane, in un ménage à trois dai risvolti inaspettati; e Big Lou, Bruce, Pat… ognuno alle prese con pensieri e problemi più o meno urgenti, nella loro ricerca quotidiana della felicità. E, su tutti, Bertie: diviso tra le solite lezioni di sassofono, le sessioni di yoga, le sedute con un nuovo psicoterapeuta, le conversazioni in italiano e le amate riunioni degli scout, in un pomeriggio in cui si perdono le tracce di sua madre Irene, imparerà una preziosa lezione sul potere dei desideri, e su quello che può succedere quando si avverano. \"Un po' di cioccolato, Bertie?\" è la 6a storia del 44 Scotland Street, ma può essere letta e apprezzata indipendentemente dall'ordine della serie.

When facing a moral dilemma, Isabel Dalhousie--Edinburgh philosopher, amateur detective, and title character of a series of novels by best-selling author Alexander McCall Smith--often refers to the great twentieth-century poet W. H. Auden. This is no accident: McCall Smith has long been fascinated by Auden. Indeed, the novelist, best known for his No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series, calls the poet not only the greatest literary discovery of his life but also the best of guides on how to live. In this book, McCall Smith has written a charming personal account about what Auden has done for him--and what he just might do for you. Part self-portrait, part literary appreciation, the book tells how McCall Smith first came across the poet's work in the 1970s, while teaching law in Belfast, a violently divided city where Auden's \"September 1, 1939,\" a poem about the outbreak of World War II, strongly resonated. McCall Smith goes on to reveal how his life has related to and been inspired by other Auden poems ever since.\nFor example, he describes how he has found an invaluable reflection on life's transience in \"As I Walked Out One Evening,\" while \"The More Loving One\" has provided an instructive meditation on unrequited love. McCall Smith shows how Auden can speak to us throughout life, suggesting how, despite difficulties and change, we can celebrate understanding, acceptance, and love for others. An enchanting story about how art can help us live, this book will appeal to McCall Smith's fans and anyone curious about Auden.

Non è solo la siccità che affligge il suo Botswana a impensierire Precious Ramotswe. Sembra impossibile, ma qualcuno ce l'ha con la più famosa detective dell'Africa. La sua assistente, la valida Grace Makutsi, ha scoperto nella corrispondenza una lettera minatoria, rigorosamente anonima. Benché preoccupata, la signora Ramotswe non può perdere troppo tempo e si tuffa nelle indagini di un nuovo caso, quello di una giovane donna adottata che vuole scoprire se qualche suo consanguineo è ancora vivo. E poi c'è un dolore di fondo. Il signor JLB Matekoni, buon marito e bravo meccanico, è perso dietro a un sogno: si aggrappa alla speranza che, grazie a un costoso miracolo, Motholeli, la figlia adottiva, possa tornare a camminare. Precious, però, riesce a muoversi con grazia anche in mezzo ai problemi, sa prendersi i suoi tempi, seduta a meditare, ma sa anche sfrecciare sul mitico e scalcagnato furgoncino bianco, se occorre. Ed è in grado di riconoscere i miracoli, quando li vede. Non quelli grandiosi, ma quelli più terreni e altrettanto meravigliosi: sentirsi amata come una mamma, l'incontro tra due anime gemelle e la terra che ritorna verde dopo una pioggia attesa e rinfrancante.

Even down to its well-set Georgian townhouses, Edinburgh is a hymn to measure and harmony. But on Scotland Street, domestic accord is in short supply. Matthew and Elspeth welcome three new arrivals, though the joys of multiple parenthood are somewhat lost due to sleep deprivation and the difficulties of telling their brood apart. Angus and Domenica are to marry, and Domenica has ambitious and disturbing plans for their living arrangements, especially when it appears that Antonia, in Italy recuperating from Stendhal Syndrome, may not return. And little Bertie, feeling blue, puts himself up for adoption on eBay. Can Edinburgh's most deliciously dysfunctional residents forsake discord and learn to dance to the same happy tune?

The second book in Alexander McCall Smith's new DETECTIVE VARG series . . .\n\n'Reading the novel feels like a form of meditation . . . There is much to enjoy' Scotsman\n\nSpring is coming slowly to Sweden - though not quite as slowly as Detective Ulf Varg's promised promotion at the Department of Sensitive Crimes. For Varg, referred by his psychoanalyst to group therapy at Malmoe's Wholeness Centre, life now seems mostly a circle of self-examination, something which may or may not be useful when it comes to the nature of his profession and the particularly sensitive cases that have recently come to light.\n\nAll in a day's work for Detective Varg, except that one of his new investigations involves fellow detective Anna; it will require every ounce of self-discipline he has in order to remain professional. The other, more curious case is centred around internationally successful novelist Nils Personn-Cederstroem. According to his girlfriend, Cederstroem is being blackmailed - but by whom and for what reason?\n\nAccompanied by his irritating but kindly colleague Blomquist, Varg begins his enquiries and soon the answers fall neatly into place. Nothing and no one is ever that simple, however, and not for the first time he learns as much about his own emotional and moral landscape as he does about the motives of others. Now Varg must make a possibly life-changing decision. Will he choose his own happiness over that of his heart's desire?
