He has probably by now been eaten by bears, like the children who made mock of the prophet Elisha; but if he still survives he will not be able to make a similar charge against Summer Lightning. With my superior intelligence, I have outgeneralled the man this time by putting in all the old Wodehouse characters under the same names. Pretty silly it will make him feel, I rather fancy.—Introduction to Summer Lightning Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (1881—1975) was, by life’s end, an…

Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves
The feather-brained Bertie Wooster complicates his life by interceding with the predatory Madeline Bassett on behalf of his friend Gussie Fink-Nottle and finds himself entangled in terrifying misunderstandings. Read more about P.G. Wodehouse… In the mounting storm clouds on the Wooster horizon there is but one ray of comfort: the presence of Jeeves, steadfast and reassuring. No cause has ever been lost while Jeeves was around, and in this uproarious novel the mastermind rises effortlessly to the occasion. Though writen post-war, after what many consider the Wodehouse golden-age of the 1930s, this remains an example of Wodehouse at his best.—Paul Donovan, Amazon.com cus…

Mr. Wodehouse, for the entertainment he has given us alone, has as much claim as any to be considered (as Bertie might put it) the Grand …
The Code of the Woosters
P.G. Wodehouse’s best-loved creation by far is the master-servant team of Bertie Wooster, likable nitwit, and Jeeves, his effortlessly superior valet and protector. As famous in their own right as Holmes and Watson, Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, or Tracy and Hepburn, this unlikely duo has their own inimitable charm.In The Code of the Woosters, it takes all the ingenuity of Jeeves, the “gentleman’s gentleman” extraordinaire, to rescue his hapless and hopelessly obtuse young employer, Bertie Wooster, from the pickle of a plot to steal a silver jug from the home of an irascible magistrate. Wodehouse is the funniest writer—that is, the most r…
