Sinopse

Private eye Dick DeWitt - called Dick Dimwit by some - needs a case badly during the dark days of the Great Depression.
 
He gets more than he bargains for when he encounters the notorious Black Llama and his gang, and faces corrupt cops. Murder and mayhem soon follow.
 
With a little help from his oddball friends, DeWitt tries to win a victory for justice - and keep himself alive.
 
If you prefer your detectives intelligent and classy, this book is not for you. But if you enjoy noir fiction featuring a bumbling, politically incorrect gumshoe, you'll like The Black Llama Caper.

    "A Tramp Abroad" by Mark Twain is a witty, insightful, and delightfully irreverent travel narrative that captures the author's sharp observations, self-deprecating humor, and enduring curiosity about the world. First published in 1880, the book chronicles Twain's extended journey through Europe—primarily Germany, Switzerland, and Italy—blending real travel experiences with exaggerated anecdotes and satirical commentary.
    
    Traveling as an inquisitive American abroad, Twain records his encounters with foreign customs, languages, landscapes, and social conventions, often highlighting the amusing misunderstandings and cultural contrasts between the Old World and the New. From struggling with the complexities of the German language to poking fun at European art, education, and traditions, Twain transforms everyday travel moments into laugh-out-loud reflections on human nature.
    
    Beyond its humor, A Tramp Abroad offers vivid descriptions of alpine scenery, historic cities, and rural life, revealing Twain's genuine appreciation for Europe's beauty and cultural depth. His observations are both playful and perceptive, combining satire with thoughtful insights into class, nationalism, education, and the shared absurdities of human behavior across cultures.
    
    The book also showcases Twain's mastery of narrative voice, effortlessly blending memoir, travel guide, comedy, and social critique. His ability to find humor in frustration, confusion, and cultural difference makes the work feel timeless and relatable, even to modern readers.
    
    Entertaining, observant, and rich with personality, A Tramp Abroad stands as one of Mark Twain's finest travel books. It is a must-read for lovers of classic literature, travel writing, and intelligent humor, offering not just a journey across Europe, but an unforgettable journey through the mind of one of America's greatest writers.

    Ann Josephson is a twenty-five-year-old sociopath whose compulsive kleptomania manifests itself in the most unlikely of places: the community center where she works out every day. The walls of the community center insulate her from the terrors of the outside world, which include her freelance work as a graphic artist; her socialite parents, who pay the better part of her living expenses; her therapist, who devotedly punches the clock; and the dark void of romantic relationships.As Ann battles the inner demons that plague her millennial psyche, she must also battle the fiends that plague her at the gym: the loudly grunting beefcake who can’t be bothered to drop his weights at a reasonable volume, the naked old lady in the locker room using a towel as butt floss, the housewife in yoga pants that obviate the need for yoga wheeling her double stroller up and down the indoor track. Set in suburban Kansas City in the early 2010s, Community Klepto—a droll combination of Bridget Jones’ Diary and Choke—makes incarnate the characters and shenanigans that go on in every gym in the world.
