In the center of it all is a fashionable fathead named Bertie Wooster and his endlessly resourceful gentleman’s gentleman-Jeeves.īertie’s crisis begins when his Aunt Dahlia commissions him to sneer at a silver cow-creamer (don’t ask, just Wiki it). This novel, first serialized in New York and London newspapers in 1938, packs several “Jeeves and Wooster” short-stories’ worth of material into one wickedly dense weave of plot, every stitch of which you will feel in your side as the ridiculous heists, blackmails, rivalries, counter-plots, and romantic complications bearing down on one Gloucestershire manor reveal just how many different shades of laughter your body can produce.
