  In Bashan and I (sometime referred to as Man and Dog), Thomas Mann, the Nobel Prize-winning author of The Magic Mountain and Death in Venice, writes in the most remarkable way of the unique relation that links a dog with his master. These memoirs read as a novel, and describe in fierce detail the behavior, feelings and psychology of Mann's dog Bashan, and of Mann himself. Mann tells how he acquired Bashan, details traits of his character, and describes how they go on harmless and bucolic hunts.
  Written in 1918 at the end of the First World War, Bashan and I is an ode to life, to nature, to simple joys, and to a dog.

  Sir Roderick Comes to Lunch

  "A rather awkward situation, if you know what I mean..."
  Bertie Wooster is in a positively radiant mood—which, as any seasoned observer will confirm, is exactly when things begin to go wrong in earnest. This time, the trouble involves a fearsome nerve specialist, a hopeless misunderstanding about cats, and a luncheon that threatens to seriously complicate Bertie's life as a free and easy gentleman about town.
  In Sir Roderick Comes to Lunch, the usual order of things—logic, confidence, and common sense—quietly excuses itself from the room. What remains is a trail of elegant misunderstandings, impeccable English, and the unmistakable scent of a very polite disaster in the making.
  While Bertie flounders under Sir Roderick's steely gaze, the incomparable Jeeves is already several moves ahead. It is a masterclass in the delicate art of surviving high society while appearing completely untroubled by it.
  A sparkling example of P.G. Wodehouse at his finest: light, elegant, and irresistibly funny. The perfect companion for a spring morning in Mayfair.
  In short: lunch is served. Reason is optional.
