UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF SCONES(ISBN=) 英文原版

　　The witty and utterly delightful new novel in the national
bestselling 44 Scotland Street series.
　　Featuring all the quirky characters we have come to know and
love, The Unbearable Lightness of Scones, finds Bertie, the
precocious six-year-old, still troubled by his rather overbearing
mother, Irene, but seeking his escape in the Cub Scouts. Matthew is
rising to the challenge of married life with newfound strength and
resolve, while Domenica epitomizes the loneliness of the
long-distance intellectual. Cyril, the gold-toothed star of the
whole show, succumbs to the kind of romantic temptation that no dog
can resist and creates a small problem, or rather six of them, for
his friend and owner Angus Lordie. 
 　　With his customary deftness, Alexander McCall Smith once
again brings us an absorbing and entertaining tale of some of
Scotland’s most quirky and beloved characters–all set in the
beautiful, stoic city of Edinburgh.
