The Lost Language of Oysters by Alexander McCall Smith #literature who died tragically young butThe latest book in Alexander McCall Smith's entertaining and hilarious Professor von Igelfeld series. Professor Moritz Maria von Igelfeld is not just any German professor he is the author of that great work of scholarship, Portuguese Irregular Verbs. His eminence in language studies is widely recognised, even if it is rarely acknowledged by his colleague, Professor Detlev Amadeus Unterholzer, author of a much less important work on the subjunctive.
