Summary

 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.'©2014 P.G. Wodehouse (P)2014 Audible, Inc. Classics Heartfelt Funny Witty

Critic reviews

"Jonathan Cecil impersonates Wooster with aplomb." ( AudioFile)
All stars
Most relevant
This is a brilliantly funny book by P G Wodehouse. It's full of good, clean, fun. Jonathan Cecil does a great job of narrating it, with totally believable accents of 'upper class' people from the 1920s.

Listen to Bertie (with a bit of help from his valet Jeeves) helping Bingo Little with his many, varied, 'loves of his life' and dealing with his cousins, and getting into trouble with his aunt.

I came to this after reading most all of the full Blandings novels. As this was my first Jeeves outing I felt well looked after with Jonathan Cecil as the performer of this audio-book,. For me this book felt a bit fragmentary, perhaps because I was thrilled with the through-writing of the Blandings novels. That said I am still committed to listening to the very many other Jeeves audio-books that I have added to my Audible library. To be frank, I turn Wodehouse novels as refreshers amidst other and more chunky listens and murder strewn plots. You know that with Wodehouse there will be sunlight and laughter and no real malice anywhere. Here as in other Wodehouse offerings as soon as you start to listen, the skies clear, the warmth wraps round you and you just enjoy the joyous ride.

It is worth knowing that on occasion the sound quality drops slightly. Well performed though.

Very enjoyable

Chapter timings a bit off but otherwise top drawer. a great performance and easy listen. I play at 1.25 speed so it feels more conversational.

Top Drawer what?
