📙 P. G. Wodehouse was, by common consent, the most brilliant writer of English comedy in the twentieth century, equally celebrated on both sides of the Atlantic. He achieved the unusual distinction of combining the widest possible popularity with the highest literary standards, attracting both the devotion of readers and the respect of his peers from Hilaire Belloc to Graham Greene. Several of his characters have already entered popular mythology. This anthology includes two novels, fourteen short stories and extracts from Wodehouse’s autobiography. The Code of the Woosters was written in 1938, Uncle Fred in the Springtime in 1939, when Wodehouse was at the height of his powers. The short stories feature all Wodehouse’s most famous creations – Jeeves and Wooster, Ukridge, Bingo Little, Mr Mulliner, the Earls of Emsworth and Ickenham. Finally, extracts from Over Seventy, a memoir as amusing and beautifully written as the novels, offer an insight into the attitudes and working habits of a very private man.
