About this listen

Winner of the British Book Awards, Author of the Year, 2004.
Winner of the CWA Dagger in the Library Award, 2004.

From the creator of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency comes a medley of perverse couplings, casual dates and romantic encounters: hilarious tales that will sadden, inspire, and surprise. McCall Smith, a master of the unexpected and a seamless storyteller, revels in offering us the quirky complications inherent in the entanglements that human beings engineer for themselves - entanglements that can be shocking, unedifying, complex, and sometimes completely disastrous.

Critic reviews

I haven't read anything with such unalloyed pleasure for a long time." (Sunday Telegraph)
"The people who inhabit these stories are funny, shocking, middle-class, and sinister, the author's wacky imagination being the only constant we can always take for granted." (Scotsman)

Anton Lesser is always a class act.
I love Alexander McCall Smith his books are far reaching and always hold intricate knowledge of life and the difficulties and joy of everyday life.

Gentle and written with understanding of life.

A great story but not to everyone’s taste. It would be more suitable for a gentleman but that is only my unbiased opinion.
