`Wodehouse is a tonic` - New Yorker.
A Wodehouse pick-me-up that`ll lift your spirits, whatever your mood.
Cheaper and more effective than Valium`.*
Offers `relief from anxiety, raginess or an afternoon-long tendency towards the sour`.*
`Read when you`re well and when you`re poorly; when you`re travelling, and when you`re not; when you`re feeling clever, and when you`re feeling utterly dim.`*
Whatever your mood, P. G. Wodehouse, widely acknowledged to be `the best English comic novelist of the century`*, is guaranteed to lift your spirits.
Why? Because `Mr Wodehouse`s idyllic world can never stale. He has made a world for us to live in and delight in.`*
How? `You don`t analyse such sunlit perfection, you just bask in its warmth and splendour.`*
*Olivia Williams *Caitlin Moran *Lynne Truss *Sebastian Faulks *Evelyn Waugh *Stephen Fry
Ever on the lookout for a quick buck, a solid gold fortune, or at least a plausible little scrounge, the irrepressible Ukridge gives con men a bad name. Looking like an animated blob of mustard in his bright yellow raincoat, he invests time, passion and energy (but seldom actual cash) in a series of increasingly bizarre money-making schemes. Shares in an accident syndicate? Easily arranged. Finance for a dog college? It`s yours.
And if you throw in some cats, flying unexpectedly from windows, and a young man trying ever-more-desperately to impress the family of his latest love, you get a medley of Wodehouse delights in which lunacy and comic exuberance reign supreme.
