"P.G. Wodehouse is my escape from the sleep-disturbing troubles of life. I know all too exactly what Evelyn Waugh meant when he said, ‘Wodehouse’s idyllic world can never stale. He will continue to release future generations from captivity that may be more irksome than our own.’ I love Jeeves and Bertie, but Uncle Fred teamed up with Lord Emsworth provides perhaps the purest release of all."

Typically convoluted P.G. WodehousePG Wodehouse 'Jeeves and Wooster' farce, in which the bumbling but good-natured Bertie Wooster finds himself affianced, against his will, to Florence Craye, which her former fiancee - 'Stilton' Cheesewright - does not take at all kindly to and whilst Bertie's 'good and deserving' Aunt Dahlia is trying to offload her weekly magazine, 'Milady's Boudoir', to a rich buyer who insists she also throws in her chef Anatole into the mix.

Throw in a clutch of pearls, Jeeves strongly disapproving of Bertie's newest fad (a moustache), layabout poets and various other romantic entanglements and misunderstandings and you have all the ingredients of another classic farce that is well worth a read!
