Right ho, Jeeves – P. G. Wodehouse

I’ve yet to find anyone who doesn’t think that Wodehouse is a fantastic author. He is able, with apparent ease, to translate the spirit of the 1920’s directly from his mind to the page through the loveable Bertie Wooster and his intelligent and sought after butler Jeeves.

This book was no exception. 


I love the way I hear the voices of Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie while I'm reading, tribute to a fantabulous tv adaptation!


The story was a string of hilarity as mishap followed mishap, people got engaged and unengaged and the whole was typified by Jeeves and Wooster.


Jeeves the ultimate British Manservant as displayed in the following dialogue;


' "Have you seen Mr Fink-Nottle, Jeeves?"
"No, Sir."
"I'm going to murder him."
"Very good, Sir." '


And the lovable, but bumbling, Bertie who was described by his aunt as 'Somebody who went about strewing ruin and desolation and breaking up homes which, until he came along, had been happy and peaceable.'


This book is definitely worth a read if you like light humour.
