Unusual Uses For Olive Oil: Professor Dr Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld
Autor Alexander McCall Smithen Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 oct 2012
There is the undeserved rise of his rival (and owner of a one-legged dachshund), Detlev Amadeus Unterholzer; the interminable ramblings of the librarian, Herr Huber; and the condescension of his colleagues with regard to his unmarried state. But when his friend Ophelia Prinzel takes it upon herself to match-make, and duly produces a cheerful heiress with her own Schloss, it appears that the professor's true worth is about to be recognised.
Maddening, idiotic and hugely entertaining, von Igelfeld is an inspired comic creation.

Recenzii
Alexander McCall Smith's wildest, whackiest and funniest yet
'Von Igelfeld gave the dog a further push. The wheel now refused to go round at all, so that the dog turned in little circles as it paddled with its remaining leg. The wheel needed oiling. But how to do that?'
Pride comes before a fall - but Professor Dr Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld, author of Portuguese Irregular Verbs and pillar of the Institute of Romance Philology in the Bavarian city of Regensburg, always knows best. How difficult can it be to scale a mountain or deliver an after-dinner talk to rowdy businessmen? More irksome are the undeserved rise of his rival (and owner of a one-legged dachshund) Unterholzer, and his colleagues' condescension over his unmarried state. So when a matchmaking friend produces a cheerful heiress with her own Schloss, finally it appears the professor's true worth is about to be recognised.
