The 2½ Pillars of Wisdom

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The 2½ Pillars Of Wisdom is the collective name for three novels by Alexander McCall Smith.[1] All three novels centre on the exploits of

Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld
. The title refers to the main character and his colleagues; the
front matter explains that von Igelfeld “had heard the three of them described as the Three Pillars of Wisdom, but looking at Professor Dr Detlev Amadeus Unterholzer
he came to the conclusion that perhaps The 2½ Pillars of Wisdom might be more appropriate”.
