Seller: Country House Library, Gloucester, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: Used; Good. This collection of letters was addressed by P. G. Wodehouse to Bill Townend ? himself a prolific writer. Written over a period of more that thirty years, they contain Wodehouse?s contemporary comments on his own books and lyrics and those of others ? comments which are often effortlessly shrew. They tell of his life in England, America, France and Germany. That war-time hysteria, which caused ?Plum? broadcasting innocently enough from Berlin in 1941, to be metamorphosed into a sort of ?Haw-Haw?, is rendered ridiculous by one reading of his actual scripts, which are reprinted in this edition from Encounter, where they first appeared. Title: Performing Flea Author: P. G. Wodehouse Publisher: Penguin Publication Date: 1961 Format: Paperback Condition: This book is in a good condition for its age other than some minor signs of wear.
