Author:P.G. Wodehouse
The titles of the first story in this collection – 'Jeeves Takes Charge' – and the last – 'Bertie Changes His Mind' – sum up the relationship of twentieth-century fiction's most famous comic characters. In between them, the various feeble-minded men and lively young women who populate Wooster's world appeal to Jeeves to solve their problems and are never disappointed.
This is one to gobble up in a single sitting
—— CompanyHugely enjoyable
—— HeatA witty novel about love
—— BThe leading comic romantic novelist of her generation
—— GuardianWilliams has fashioned an always engaging, psychologically convincing work of fiction - a consistent and well-realized portrait
—— New YorkerA highly imaginative account of the life and times of Augustus-a brilliant novel
—— Library JournalA brilliant epistolary novel about Octavius Caesar and ancient Rome...all three [of John Williams'] novels show a similar narrative arc: a young man's initiation, vicious male rivalries, subtler tensions between men and women, fathers and daughters, and finally a bleak sense of disappointment, even futility.
—— New York TimesExquisite...brims with great lines
—— Chicago TribuneA vividly imagined re-creation of classical Rome, but its intuitive grasp of the experience of immense power makes it an unusual, and superior, novel
—— Boston GlobeThere could be no better year than 2014 to rediscover this one
