Bachelor Brothers’ Bed & Breakfast Pillow Book

Hector and Virgil first appeared in Bachelor Brothers' Bed & Breakfast, which documented their unique haven for bibliophiles. Bachelor Brothers' Bed & Breakfast Pillow Book continues their irresistible collection of sweet doggerel, annotated recipes, anecdotes, gossip, memories of childhood, and lists of recommended reading. This time, the events at the brothers' fictitious bed & breakfast establishment variously involve Waffle, the cat; a garrulous Amazon parrot named Mrs. Rochester; Hector's lady friend, Altona; Caedmon, the handyman, hagiographer, and bread-dough artist; Polly Perch, the prying lifestyle journalist; and June and Rae, now mothers of little Martina. The local poet, Solomon Solomon, takes a star turn, leading to a hilarious revelation about the lineage of the fiftyish twin landlords.
