Piccadilly Jim, Hardback Book

Piccadilly Jim Hardback

Part of the Everyman's Library P G WODEHOUSE series

Hardback

Description

This sparkling story of transatlantic manners follows the fortunes of playboy Jimmy Crocker in England and America.

When Jimmy falls for a girl in London and vows to reform himself as a result, the quest for love leads him to his Aunt Nesta’s house in New York, where his escapades involve impersonating himself and attempting to kidnap Nesta’s odious son Ogden – with the boy demanding a cut of the ransom money.

A full flush of minor characters – pretentious poets, butlers, boxers, put-upon husbands and Wall Street businessmen – make the comedy crackle as only Wodehouse knew how.
