  The Yarkand Manner by Saki is a satirical short story that explores the peculiarities of human behavior through the lens of a fictional newspaper's editorial staff. The narrative begins with Sir Lulworth Quayne and his nephew discussing the phenomenon of migration among both animals and humans. 
  They reflect on a recent trend where the entire staff of the Daily Intelligencer, a prominent London newspaper, embarks on an ambitious journey to Eastern Turkestan, seeking adventure and new perspectives.Upon their return, however, the staff adopts a mysterious and aloof demeanor known as the "Yarkand manner." This change leads to a decline in communication and accessibility, causing confusion and concern among their colleagues and the public.

  ♥ Welcome to Pemberton Manor: A place where misfits fit in, where normal is overrated, and where hope - and love - spring eternal. ♥ 
  Book 6: The Winter Wife 
  Sally Bishop thought her happily ever after would be all sunshine and roses. She fell in love with a flower farmer from sunny Southern California—how could it be anything else? But when a devastating diagnosis brings storm clouds and gray skies, Sally can’t help but feel like she’s come face to face with the barren landscape and hostile environment of the worst winter of her life. She’s never felt quite so isolated and lonely. 
  The apartment complex where the Bishops have taken temporary refuge, however, is full of other residents who know what it’s like to feel abandoned, rejected, or simply forgotten. And they’re not about to let Sally and Jason traverse this difficult season alone. Besides, spring is just around the corner… bringing new beginnings, silver linings, and above all, hope. 
  Pemberton Manor is as out of place in Southern California as its residents seem to be. But if home is where the heart is, then this English estate planted amidst orange groves and palm trees, deserts and beaches, and converted into ten charming apartments, is the perfect place to hang a hat. Fall in love with the quirky bunch of characters who call Pemberton Manor home. But be warned. Once you set foot inside these doors, you may never want to leave. 
  Pemberton Manor: The Winter Wife is a clean and wholesome novella in a series about family life, sweet romance, second chances, and HOPE-fully ever afters. If you enjoyed Becky Doughty's Elderberry Croft Collection, you'll feel right at home with the folks at Pemberton Manor.

  Master Matchek is a Czechoslovakian maths teacher in his mid-fifties who has two great passions. He loves maths and he loves spanking women's bottoms, both young and old. He has a reputation for getting his girls very high marks in their final exams but his reputation for spanking girls who do not do their homework or wear the wrong clothes for his extra lessons is also well known. In this book, Susan Benting enrols her daughter Pauline on the course but omits to tell Master Matchek that she has a husband so she gets spanked twice before the course begins. Phillip Benting learns that spanking his wife and daughter can be very effective. 
  Verified Purchase: Another great story

  In this volume 32 short stories, as life itself writes them. They take the reader from Germany to Switzerland, to Cameroon - even as far away as India and even Tibet. Some cheerful, some sad, but all entertaining and thought-provoking. The author endeavours to use polished, elevated language and is far removed from today's unfortunately often used 'telegram style'. 
  Spoken by AI's Sonia Neural and Ryan Neural.

  A Somewhat Improbable Story -...

  G K Chesterton

  G K Chesterton (29 May 1874 – 14 June 1936) was a poet, novelist, playwright, literary commentator, editor, biographer, journalist, orator and theologian.  He was often dubbed as the “prince of paradox” for his light whimsical style that often addressed serious issues such as politics and religion.  The latter was as a member and defender of the Christian faith and the former was shaped by a distrust of concentrated wealth and power.  He advocated Distributionism and said that every man should be allowed to own "three acres and a cow."  These political views have spread round the world, crediting Chesterton as the father of the “small is beautiful” movement.  It is also said to have influenced Gandhi in seeking a genuine nationalism for India rather than imitating the British state.   
  Chesterton was remarkably prolific but perhaps his most famous creation is Father Brown.  Within this character Chesterton’s clever writing and profound ideas reveal truths, often with humour as the detective priest pursues the answers to his cases.
