About the Author
P. G. Wodehouse (Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse) (1881-1975) was an English humorist who wrote novels, short stories, plays, poems, song lyrics, and numerous pieces of journalism. He was highly popular throughout a career that lasted more than seventy years, and his many writings continue to be widely read. He is best known for his novels and short stories of Bertie Wooster and his manservant Jeeves and for his settings of English upper-class society of the pre- and post-World War I era. He lived in several countries before settling in the United States after World War II. During the 1920s, he collaborated with Broadway legends like Cole Porter and George Gershwin on musicals and, in the 1930s, expanded his repertoire by writing for motion pictures. He was honored with a knighthood in 1975.
Review
''Wodehouse's novels are the very definition of British humor -- bubblingly witty and dryly loony.'' --Entertainment Weekly, praise for the author
''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, New York Times bestselling author, praise for the author
''To enjoy this novel, you must delight in brittle turns of phrase and have a taste for a pocket full of wry.'' --Tom Markus, in A Novel Approach to Theatre: From Adams to Zola
