The Lost Language of Oysters

by Alexander McCall Smith · 2026

The latest installment in Alexander McCall Smith’s charming and hilarious Professor Dr Dr Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld series Professor Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld is not just any German professor—he is the author of the highly-regarded work of scholarship, Portuguese Irregular Verbs. His eminence in language studies is widely respected, albeit rarely acknowledged by his colleague, Professor Detlev-Amadeus Unterholzer, the writer of a far less important book on the subjunctive. Their rivalry bubbles under the surface, but is quick to come into the open if something unusual disturbs the calm waters
