Publisher's Synopsis

2019 Reprint of 1923 Edition.

Review

"You should read Wodehouse when you are well, and when you're poorly; when you're travelling, and when you're not; when you're feeling clever, and when you're feeling utterly dim. Wodehouse always lifts your spirits, no matter how high they happen to be already." --Lynne Truss"

"You don't analyze such sunlit perfection, you just bask in its warmth and splendor." --Stephen Fry"

"Wodehouse's idyllic world can never stale. He will continue to release future generations from captivity that may be more irksome than our own. He has made a world for us to live in and delight in." --Evelyn Waugh"

Wodehouse is arguably one of the funniest English language authors as well as a prolific and unflagging deliverer of fun that the human race, a glum crowd, has yet produced.
