Description
P. G. Wodehouse, one of the finest writers ever to set pen to paper, is widely considered to be Britain’s most prominent humorist and one of this century's greatest literary talents. In this collection, sixteen stories feature some of his most memorable characters: Jeeves and Bertie Wooster; Roderick Spode and Stiffy Byng; Psmith and Clarence; Ukridge and his wife Angela; Ethel Voysey; Pongo Twistleton; and Bill the Conqueror, an American gorilla living in England who reads Shakespeare. Each story is prefaced by a brief explanation of Wodehouse's writing style and noted briefly on how he used his own life experiences into his stories.
