P. G. Wodehouse is a classic of 20th-century English humorous prose—a worthy successor to the traditions of Jerome K. Jerome, a fellow and rival of Evelyn Waugh, but above all the literary father of the legendary duo Jeeves and Wooster, of the frenzied adventurer Psmith, the funny unlucky adventurer Ukridge, the magnificent “Englishman in New York” Unbreakable Archie, the colorful eccentric Muliner family, and many other heroes and antiheroes whose brilliant sayings have long become proverbial.
The famous novel by the classic of English literature, the great master of grotesque and farce, Pelham G. Wodehouse, about amusing adventures of young aristocrats—where love plotlines are combined with a dynamic detective story.
