Listen to Cakes and Ale, one of W. Somerset Maugham’s most beloved and subtly provocative novels. First published in 1930, this classic explores love, marriage, art, hypocrisy, and the cost of respectability in English society. Told with Maugham’s trademark wit and clarity, the novel reflects on memory, morality, and the tension between social conformity and personal freedom. Inspired in part by real literary figures, Cakes and Ale is both a sharp social satire and a deeply human story.

In this fourth and final installment of the Saint James Street James memoirs about the last real man to ever live, he gives you every single last inch of himself until you're satisfied. Some might say, "The Final Inch." I would never say that as a comedy writer, because that sucks. The Jews probably put that in. Maybe "two-factor" authentification really is necessary on Amazon? Who knew? Anywho, if you're tired of being weak, hate your job, hate your fat wife and all that bullspit, then listen to this.

Welcome to the Grand Masquerade Ball for the Wyrde…and Wondrous! It’s time to party like it’s 1820, and you know what that means. Rout cakes and punch, satins and silks, and flirting on the balcony under a star-washed sky. Decorous. Genteel. Lovely. Nobody knows who’s throwing this bash, but who cares? It’s the party of the century, and everyone who’s anyone is going to be there. Including, astonishingly, the Werths. Famous recluses they may be, but who can resist a mystery and a waltz? Not that everyone’s on their best behaviour.
