Publisher's Synopsis
The White Feather by P. G. Wodehouse is a comedic novel set against the backdrop of World War I. It combines Wodehouse's trademark British humor with a satirical take on social expectations and class distinctions. The story revolves around romantic entanglements and the idea of heroism within the context of military service. The plot humorously explores how the protagonist navigates the pressures of wartime society, where notions of courage and bravery are both tested and lampooned. Through witty dialogue and amusing situations, Wodehouse offers a critique of British society's values and the absurdities of social norms. The novel highlights the contrast between genuine heroism and the superficial judgments often imposed by society. With its blend of romance, adventure, and humor, The White Feather presents a charmingly satirical view of both the wartime era and the class-based expectations of British life.
