Plum Sauce : A Wodehouse Companion Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Item not Available

Description

In witty and idiosyncratic prose Richard Usborne brings order to the vast and tangled fictional world that Wodehouse stitched together in a writing career stretching over 70 years and nearly 100 books.

This one-stop shop introduces us to all the great creations: Jeeves and Wooster, Psmith, Ukridge, Lord Emsworth and the world of Blandings.

It offers character sketches of the rest of the Wodehouse cast from Gussie Fink Nottle to the chorus of Aunts and Drones, and witty plot summaries of all Wodehouse's books.

Copiously illustrated with original dust-jacket artwork and sketches from the Strand Magazine, Plum Sauce also has fun with Wodehouse's incomparable skill with language, the bizarre rules at play in his fictional world, and gathers the choicest nuggets of Wodehouse prose on themes ranging from women to drink.

So whether you're an old hand with Wodehouse in search of further amusement or a novice scratching the old lemon who simply doesn't know where to start, Plum Sauce is just the ticket to get you out of the soup.
