I am reading Douglas Botting’s biography of Gerald Durrell and Andrea Camilleri’s Montalbano mystery “The Scent of the Night.” While I watch TV, I am also dipping into and re-reading Wodehouse as a specific remedy for being exposed to so much political coverage.

My break from reading all the political coverage right now is “The Diana Chronicles,” by Tina Brown. Sort of a real-life, dark side of the Wodehouse world (British upper classes and their many follies).

You can’t go wrong with Wodehouse...bought the complete Wooster and Jeeves CD set this year; read his biography, and “Leave it to Jeeves” and “Carry on Jeeves”. One of my all-time favorite authors.
