The Finer Points of Sausage Dogs

This is the second in the Professor von Ingelfeld series by Alexander McCall Smith.
The siutations that the Professor gets himself into in the book are bizarre, but hilarious. They include mistaken identity in Arkansas, an operation that goes wrong on a sausage dog (don't read this chapter if you like these dogs), visits involving a psychoanalyst and a father confessor, transporting the bones of a saint where the dog gets revenge of a sort and a meeting with the Pope, and finally a sea cruise with some interested widows.
Give it a try!

I recommend "Einstein's Dreams" by Alan Lightman. I wrote about it on my blog.
