David Ritchie inspired me briefly out of my ennui, causing me to see what's
there:
Glad you spoke up. I hope you have some P.G. Wodehouse to go with all that
theology. He lightens the mood:
"I would gladly have continued our conversation, but I knew he must be wanting
to get back to his Spinoza. No doubt I had interrupted him just as Spinoza was
on the point of solving the mystery of the headless body on the library floor."
“Aunts Aren’t Gentlemen,” or, as it was called in America, “The Cat-Nappers.”
Not Wodehouse’s best, but one likes to put philosophy on the fork along with a
bite of literature.
