Bachelor Brother's Bed and Breakfast - (Wyatt Book) by Bill Richardson (Paperback)

About the Book

This bestselling, award-winning novel--"a bibliophile's delight" ("Publishers Weekly")--tells of two brothers who operate a bed & breakfast establishment where the air is asteam with the promise of tea, where if it's not bathtime then it's probably bedtime. "A funny, cozy tale".--"Anniston Star".

Book Synopsis

A pair of endearingly eccentric bachelors--in their fifties, and fraternal twins--own and operate a bed & breakfast establishment where people like them, the "gentle and bookish and ever so slightly confused," can feel at home. Hector and Virgil think of their B&B as a refuge, a retreat, a haven, where folks may bring their own books or peruse the brothers' own substantial library. An antic blend of homespun and intellectual humor, Bachelor Brothers' Bed & Breakfast is a place readers will want to return to again and again.

Bachelor Brothers' Bed & Breakfast, originally published by Douglas & McIntyre, won Canada's prestigious Stephen Lecock Award for Humour in 1994, and was published in hardcover by A Wyatt Book for St. Martin's Press in 1996. Its sequel, Bachelor Brothers' Bed & Breakfast Pillow Book, is a Canadian bestseller, and will be published in hardcover by A Wyatt Book in October 1997.
