About this listen

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.

I was introduced to PG Wohehouse in my early 20s when a University friend recommended him - and loved it. my Dad (I discovered) had several of his books (including a mint condition 1st edition of 'Joy in the Morning' which I didnt appreciate, so it's now much read, but not mint condition).
the Inimitable Jeeves is a great introduction to this set of characters. Great to listen to on long journeys now I've discovered it on Audio. Many a time I've had a quiet chortle as I've twiddled a thoughtful steering wheel ...
