African American literature is the body of literature produced in the United States by writers of African descent. It begins with the works of such late 18th-century writers as Phillis Wheatley. Before the high point of enslaved people narratives, African-American literature was dominated by autobiographical spiritual narratives. The genre known as slave narratives in the 19th century were accounts by people who had generally escaped from slavery, about their journeys to freedom and ways they claimed their lives.

A munitions factory. A managing director who can't stop talking. And a guest who appears to understand absolutely nothing about steel. Appearances, as ever with Roger Sheringham, are not to be trusted. Wartime England keeps its secrets close — except, perhaps, from the one visitor everyone assumes isn't paying attention. Anthony Berkeley at his wittiest: deduction with a wink.

Suzette Mullen had been raised to play it safe—and she hated causing others pain. With college and law degrees, a kind and successful husband, two thriving adult sons, and an ocean-view vacation home, she lived a life many people would envy. But beneath the happy facade was a woman who watched her friends walk boldly through their lives and wondered what was holding her back from doing the same.

A missed train. A late-night walk. And an umbrella where no umbrella should be. The narrator only wanted to do the decent thing — put it back where he found it. He had no idea what else was lying on the line. Five minutes. That's all it takes. Five minutes, a railway crossing, and a debt twenty years in the making.

A family breakfast. A casual remark — "the only husband I ever had." And a man whose heart, by lunchtime, will have stopped for reasons that have nothing to do with his heart. Reggie Fortune doesn't investigate. He drawls, he sighs, he says "my dear chap" — and somewhere underneath all that languor, he's already counting the lies. There were two victims that morning. Only one of them was found in the wood.

Paris, 1920s. A casino glittering with bad intentions. A wedding night that ends with a severed head on the floor — and a room nobody entered, nobody left. Detective Bencolin has seen a great deal. He has not seen this. There is a madman somewhere in the crowd. A woman who knows more than she says. A Russian with a perfect alibi and a monocle that never fogs. And a murder so impossible that the only honest answer is: it didn't happen. It happened.

A big black handbag, two bunches of daffodils, and a sharp-faced young man with pointed shoes. When a purse goes missing on a London-bound coach, an elderly passenger named Elsie steps in to fix the mess. But in Anthony Gilbert's rain-slicked urban world, charity is rarely free, and a successful heist is only as good as the final hand-off. A sharp, bite-sized mystery where everyone is playing a game, and the real winner is the one who leaves the bus first.

Frank Marriott is eager to confess to his wife's murder. He has both motive and opportunity, and his account of the night appears perfectly coherent. Yet Chief Detective-Inspector Alleyn is not convinced that a confession this complete can be entirely truthful. In Boots, Ngaio Marsh distills the detective story to its essential mechanics, where the smallest, most ordinary detail becomes the key to an elaborate deception.

A nephew with a debt problem. An uncle with a boat, a will, and rather too much whisky. And one perfectly ordinary piece of fruit, rolling across a cabin table in the moonlight. Sandhaven is a quiet little port. Nothing much happens there — except, on this particular spring night, a slow leak, a sleeping man, and a plan with no loose ends. Almost none.

A man walks into a bar with a bottle of his wife's sleeping pills in his pocket and twenty thousand pounds' worth of desperation in his chest. He walks out with rather more than he bargained for. The house at the end of the poplar avenue is waiting. And the gentlemen of Smith & Smith are nothing if not thorough.

A drawing of two white mice. A riding whip. And a woman who cannot speak — but is trying, desperately, to tell someone something. A barrister with a gift for codes. A psychologist who doesn't believe in telepathy — until tonight. And forty miles of dark country road between them and an old house with two white doors. Some messages are written. Some are screamed in silence. E.C.R. Lorac — a puzzle, a race against time, and a mother's last, wordless act of courage.

Timothy Rolls never wanted to be a hero. He wanted a cup of tea, a quiet evening, and to get home safely. Instead, he got evidence. The kind that gets people killed. In a provincial town where a murderer walks free and reputation is everything, one small man stands between justice and a very convenient suicide. What saves him has nothing to do with courage, police, or luck — and everything to do with an orange he nearly didn't pick up.

Some people solve problems. Bertie Wooster collects them beautifully. An ill-advised lunch, a formidable aunt, a sentimental friend with catastrophic romantic instincts, and a betting disaster — in this universe, high society seems permanently one misunderstanding away from collapse. Fortunately, there remains the calm, incomparable intelligence of Jeeves, who can restore social order with a raised eyebrow and a perfectly timed remark. In The Inimitable Jeeves, P. G. Wodehouse turns ordinary inconvenience into high comedy.

Bertie Wooster's life is a beautifully orchestrated disaster. Whether he is fleeing terrifying aunts, becoming entangled in ill-fated schemes, or facing the sudden threat of matrimony, trouble has a way of finding him. Enter Jeeves: the incomparable valet who is always ready to save his master from himself. Inside this complete collection are thirty-three legendary tales of romantic entanglements, country-house chaos, and glorious confusion.

There are few sights more alarming in the West End than young Bingo Little sitting in a club armchair with a dreamy, vacant stare. It usually means his heart is thoroughly compromised, his pockets are entirely empty, and Bertie Wooster is about to pay for it. Bingo and the Little Woman plunges us straight into the terrifying world of high-society romance on a shoestring budget.

Getting two rowdy undergraduate twins out of London should be a simple matter of logistics. But when the twins in question are Claude and Eustace, departure becomes a high art form of creative procrastination.

Charged with the harrowing task of shepherding his chaotic cousins onto a boat to South Africa, Bertie suddenly finds himself running a highly dysfunctional transit camp.

Some people inherit money. Bertie Wooster inherits other people's trouble, neatly dressed in a perfectly tailored evening suit. In The Purity of the Turf, P. G. Wodehouse reminds us that true gentlemen with excellent manners and questionable judgment are uniquely capable of transforming a sleepy village holiday into a chaotic battlefield. When a rural school-treat becomes the backdrop for an amateur betting ring, Bertie willingly assumes the role of a master strategist. Predictably, the local bookmaker is three steps ahead, and the grand plans rapidly unravel.

Dealing with the romantic impulses of Bingo Little is usually where sanity ends and Bertie Wooster's wardrobe begins to suffer. In The Metropolitan Touch, clueless high-society confidence collides head-on with the stubborn realities of a country parish. The panic arrives via a frantic cry for help from Bingo, who has fallen in love with a lady of a dangerously serious nature. Desperate to impress her, he decides to unleash his so-called city sophistication on the local countryside, dragging Bertie along as a highly reluctant accomplice.
