Synopsis

With his overbearing sister, Lady Constance, and the ill-tempered Alaric, Duke of Dunstable, about to descend upon Blandings Castle, Lord Elmsworth calls in his brother, Sir Galahad Threepwood, for moral support. But when Dunstable shows up with a controversial portrait of a nude woman, Blandings erupts in chaos. Every eccentric guest seems to want the painting, and for very different reasons—Wilbur Trout because it looks like his ex-wife, and Lord Elmsworth because it's a ringer for his pet pig! How in the world will Gally sort this mess out?

From AudioFile:

It would be easy to drive off the road while you whoop with laughter over this audiobook. From the first bon mot to the last cheerio, each syllable is a pearl before swine. Nigel Lambert performs admirably with different pitches and myriad accents. The dialogue makes you wonder just how many readers there really are. If you are a Wodehouse fan, this reading will elate you. If you have only seen Jeeves on the telly, have a go at this jolly presentation.
