The desire of the ages is a real book. It is by Ellen G White. A prophetess, and describes the battle between God and Satan.
Whiffle, The Care of the Pig. The Blandings novels and short stories by PG Wodehouse.
Ellen Gould White (1827-1915) was one of the founders of Seventh Day Adventism and the author of Desire of Ages, a life of Christ.
And if we're going to mention Lord Peter WIMSEY, let's not forget his The Murderer's Vade-Mecum which is mentioned in An Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club and was subsequently (ca. 1982) the title of a discussion of Sayers by L E Böttiger in the BMJ.
