    "A dashed awkward situation, if you know what I mean..."
    Bertie Wooster is in a positively radiant mood—which, as any seasoned observer will tell you, is precisely when things begin to go wrong in earnest. Between Bingo Little's latest and most imprudent romantic upheaval and a certain alarming development in the matter of a mauve shirt, Bertie finds himself on the brink of a crisis of the first water.
    In "Jeeves in the Springtime," the incomparable valet is already several moves ahead. While Bertie flounders and Bingo blunders, Jeeves is busy brewing the perfect tea and quietly steering events away from the sort of outcome that simply doesn't bear thinking about.
    A sparkling example of Wodehouse at his finest: effortless, elegant, and irresistibly funny. The only sensible companion for a spring morning in Mayfair.

    Ethel Dell in short compass: a Cornish fishing village and a wave; men who are brutes and then are not; women who choose them anyway. Her first novel was rejected eight times and then ran through thirty editions — the critics were merciless and the public did not care, and Q. D. Leavis used her as an exhibit in an argument about what the public wanted. Read her to see what that was, and why it worked. Sixty plates of sea painting by Turner, Aivazovsky and others, from calm sunsets to wrecks, run from 1770 to 1898 alongside her waves and the men who survive them.
