Summary

E. Temple Thurston's 'The Patchwork Papers' is a work of modernist literature that delves into the intricacies of human relationships, identity, and societal expectations. Written in a poetic and introspective style, the book explores the interconnected lives of a diverse group of characters, each struggling with their own insecurities and desires. Thurston's use of fragmented narratives and stream-of-consciousness technique adds depth and complexity to the storytelling, reflecting the fragmented nature of the human experience in the early 20th century. E. Temple Thurston, a prolific English author known for his keen observations of human behavior and intricate character studies, brings a unique perspective to 'The Patchwork Papers'. Drawing inspiration from his own life experiences and the cultural milieu of his time, Thurston weaves a rich tapestry of emotions and insights that resonate with readers on a profound level. I highly recommend 'The Patchwork Papers' to readers who enjoy thought-provoking, character-driven narratives that explore the complexities of human nature. This novel is a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate and challenge readers with its depth and literary brilliance.

    An aggressive dog, whether large of small, baring its teeth and growling can be a terrifying sight. Dogs, like children, require boundaries and training in order for them to grow into sociable, well-mannered adults with a healthy respect for their fellow beings. Barbara Sykes explains how to recognise and understand the causes of hostility in dogs, and how to move forward in a calm and sympathetic way in order to gain a dog's respect and friendship. The author is an experienced dog trainer and her common-sense approach to behavioural problems in dogs is successfully proven in this book by the rehabilitation of Craig.

    Ted Kerasote met and adopted Merle, a Laborador mix, while he was on a camping trip.  Merle had been living in the wild, and after taking the dog home with him to Wyoming, Kerasote soon realized that Merle could not adjust to inhabiting exclusively in the human world.  So he put a door in his house to let Merle live both outside and in.A deeply touching portrait of a remarkable animal, Merle's Door explores the issues that all animals and their human companions face as their lives intertwine, and presents the latest research into animal behavior as well as the origins and evolution of human-dog interaction.  Merle showed Kerasote how dogs might live were they free; Kerasote suggests how they should be allowed to live, and the doors that should always remain open to them.

    P.G. Wodehouse, the master of British humor, produced dozens of books and hundreds of short stories in his long and prolific career. But none of his creations has quite captured the world's imagination as much as his bumbling, empty-headed, man-about-town Bertie Wooster and Bertie's faithful, knight-in-shining tuxedo Jeeves.   Collected here are three of Wodehouse's most beloved "Jeeves and Wooster" tales - including eight short stories from the anthology "My Man, Jeeves," as well as the complete novels "The Inimitable Jeeves" and "Right Ho, Jeeves" - each a master class in comedic writing. ("My Man Jeeves" also features four stories surrounding Reggie Pepper, an early Bertie Wooster prototype.).  Along with Jeeves and Bertie, we are introduced to an entire cast of beloved Wodehouse characters: Madeline Bassett, Bingo Little, James "Corky" Corcoran, Honoria Glossop, Rockmetteller Todd and the terrifying and bombastic Aunt Agatha.  These three books are presented here in their original and unabridged form.
