I will leave people to read other reviews to get a description as to what it covers, as I cannot really add anything of significance. It is ranked 3 1/2 stars only because there is a wide selection of Wodehouse to choose from, and it is hard to distinguish between the very best and some which are not quite there. Big Ship 15 August 2022 Wodehouse may be the most comic writer from his time. This book, in a consummately British, very moist audiobook reading, was constantly hilarious. This author's use of similes might be unequaled. The wordy acrobatics he pulls off juxtaposes a mundane setting for bumbling characters. The prevalent theme is money, and how it is variously lost and gained, in relatively trifling amounts by people who just can't resist themselves. Featuring lost Pekinese, stamp collections and top hats. Don't expect earth-shattering dramatic panoplies but endlessly entertaining small-time antics. Even if many situations are interchangeable, they are wonderfully wild. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
