The Comforts of a Muddy Saturday

I think this series set in Edinburgh, Scotland and featuring philosopher Isabel Dalhousie as the central character just keeps getting better.

Nothing earth-shattering happens - it's basically life as usual. Isabel's baby, Charlie, is getting bigger. Isabel continues to edit and print a philosophy journal. Isabel tries to help a man so overcome with shame that he gave up his profession and never leaves his home.

Life continues to go quietly on... .
