From the bestselling author of Shopgirl comes the tender story of a troubled man who finds love, and life, in the most unexpected place. Daniel resides in his Santa Monica apartment, living much of his life as a bystander: He watches from his window as the world goes by, and his only relationships seem to be with people who barely know he exists. He passes the time idly filling out contest applications, counting ceiling tiles, and estimating the wattage of light bulbs. It is through Daniel's growing attachment to Clarissa, and to Teddy, that he finally gains the courage to begin to engage the world outside, and in doing so, he discovers love, and life, in the most surprising places. Filled with his trademark humor, tenderness, and out and out hilarious wordplay, The Pleasure of My Company is a tour de force sure to delight all of Steve Martin's fans.

Charles Warren Stoddard (1843–1909) was, during his life, an acclaimed and prolific writer in multiple genres: poetry, travel sketches, personal memoir, and conversion narrative. His most popular works were dispatches primarily from the South Sea Islands but also extended into Palestine, Egypt, and what would become known as Hawai‘i, most of which were published in the San Francisco Chronicle and then collected into books. For the Pleasure of His Company: An Affair of the Misty City, Thrice Told (1903) is Stoddard’s only novel. This new edition, as with other works in Penn Press’s series Q19: The Queer American Nineteenth Century, returns and reframes an important queer literary text to print. Set mostly in and around San Francisco in the late nineteenth century, the novel features a protagonist, Paul Clitheroe, who is an aspiring writer living among the Bohemian artistic circles of that place and time—the same circles Stoddard himself inhabited. The novel is both formally experimental and largely autobiographical. Thus Paul comes into contact, as Stoddard did, with writers, artists, actors, directors, priests, adventurers, and many others as he attempts to begin his career. Bohemian artistic life and erotic experimentation go hand in hand here: Paul has multiple relationships with other men even as he writes a novel that features similar liaisons. At the very end of the story, while on a cruise in the Pacific, Paul impulsively leaves his ship and disappears in a canoe with some young Hawaiian men. This parallels Stoddard’s life too: he spent many long periods of his life in Hawai‘i, where he found the local homoerotic customs to his liking. This Q19 volume also includes three of Stoddard’s Hawaiian travel sketches, which chronicle his intimate personal relationship with a Hawaiian youth he calls Kána-Aná. The volume contains a full critical introduction as well as extensive annotations explaining textual references of various kinds and identifying parallels with Stoddard’s own life.

This Sense & Sensibility sequel is a mature coming-of-age adventure/clean romance that includes some of literature’s most beloved Regency characters, along with a new cast of friends young and old. WITH DAUGHTERS ELINOR AND MARIANNE WELL-MARRIED, widow Francine Dashwood’s thoughts turn to the same for young Margaret. But Francine’s widowed sister Emmeline has other plans, suggesting they seek husbands for themselves. Emmeline is independent and outgoing—very unlike Francine, who has always doubted her own ability in the world at large and lived in the shadow of her charismatic husband. A journey to the south coast of Devonshire with friends throws the sisters into the company of wildly attractive Admiral Tennant, recently widowed Charles Creighton, and opinionated Cecil Walford. As each lady experiences the diversions of the seaside resort with adventures by land and by sea, they discover romance, intrigue, renewal, and are challenged by tests of loyalty and honor. All framed by the unspoken question “Is it too late for love?” The Pleasure of Her Company is part of a collection of sequels and side stories inspired by Jane Austen’s novels. The first, Her Summer at Pemberley (2020) tells Kitty Bennet’s story after Pride & Prejudice.
