P. G. Wodehouse
In the bar-parlor of the Angler's Rest, a bucolic English pub, Mr. Mulliner tells his amazing tales, holding the assembled company of pints of stout and whiskeys and splash in the palm of his expressive hand. Here you can discover what happened to the man who gave up smoking, share a frisson when the butler delivers something squishy on a silver salver ("Your serpent, Sir," said the voice of Simmons), and experience the dreadful unpleasantness at Bludleigh Court. Throughout, the Mulliner clan remains resourcefully in command in the most outlandish situations.

“Wodehouse always lifts your spirits, no matter how high they happen to be already.”
(Lynne Truss, New York Times bestselling author)“Not only the funniest English novelist who ever wrote but one of our finest stylists.”
(Susan Hill, New York Times bestselling author)“The incomparable and timeless genius—perfect for readers of all ages, shapes, and sizes!”
(Kate Mosse, New York Times bestselling author)“For as long as I’m immersed in a P. G. Wodehouse book, it’s possible to keep the real world at bay and live in a far, far nicer, funnier one where happy endings are the order of the day.”
(Marian Keyes, internationally bestselling author)“It’s dangerous to use the word genius to describe a writer, but I’ll risk it with [Wodehouse].”
(John Humphrys, author, journalist, and radio and television presenter)“[P. G. Wodehouse] is known for numerous popular stories and novels about his whimsical upper-class characters: the Honorable Bertie Wooster, Psmith, Mr. Mulliner; Jeeves, the valet; and assorted peers. Much of the humor stems from the idle gentleman. The books contain fantasy, affectionate satire, and the absurd comic situations of farce. The style is very elaborate, full of verbal ingenuity, mock pomposity, and unexpected slang.”
