Book description
The Inimitable Jeeves
A classic collection of stories featuring some of the funniest
episodes in the life of Bertie Wooster, gentleman, and Jeeves, his
gentleman's gentleman - in which Bertie's terrifying Aunt Agatha
stalks the pages, seeking whom she may devour, while Bertie's friend
Bingo Little falls in love with seven different girls in succession
(including the bestselling romantic novelist Rosie M. Banks). And
Bertie, with Jeeves's help, hopes to evade the clutches of the
terrifying Honoria Glossop. At its heart is one of Wodehouse's most
delicious stories, 'The Great Sermon Handicap'.
Carry On, Jeeves
These marvellous stories introduce us to Jeeves, whose first ever
duty is to cure Bertie's raging hangover ('If you would drink this,
sir... it is a little preparation of my own invention. It is the
Worcester Sauce that gives it its colour. The raw egg makes it
nutritious. The red pepper gives it its bite. Gentlemen have told me
they have found it extremely invigorating after a late evening.')
And from that moment, one of the funniest, sharpest and most
touching partnerships in English literature never looks back...
Very Good, Jeeves:
An outstanding collection of Jeeves stories, every one a winner, in
which Jeeves endeavours to give satisfaction:
By saving a grumpy cabinet minister from being marooned and attacked
by a swan - in the process saving Bertie Wooster from his impending doom...
By rescuing Bingo Little and Tuppy Glossop from the soup (twice each)...
By arranging rather too many performances of the song 'Sonny Boy' to
a not very appreciative audience...
And by a variety of other sparkling stratagems that should reduce
you to helpless laughter.
