Download or read book Jeeves and the King of Clubs written by Ben Schott and published by Hachette+ORM. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What ho! A new Jeeves and Wooster novel that is "impossible to read without grinning idiotically" (Evening Standard), penned in homage to P.G. Wodehouse by bestselling author Ben Schott -- in which literature's favorite master and servant become spies for the English Crown. The misadventures of Bertie Wooster and his incomparable personal gentleman, Jeeves, have delighted audiences for nearly a century. Now bestselling author Ben Schott brings this odd couple back to life in a madcap new adventure full of the hijinks, entanglements, imbroglios, and Wodehousian wordplay that readers love. In this latest uproarious adventure, the Junior Ganymede Club (an association of England's finest butlers and valets) is revealed to be an elite arm of the British secret service. Jeeves must ferret out a Fascist spy embedded in the highest social circles, and only his hapless employer, Bertie, can help. Unfolding in the background are school-chum capers, affairs of the heart, antics with aunts, and sartorial set-tos. Energized by Schott's effervescent prose, and fully authorized by the Wodehouse Estate, Jeeves and the King of Clubs is a delight for lifelong fans and the perfect introduction to two of fiction's most beloved comic characters.

Download or read book The P G Wodehouse Miscellany written by N.T.P Murphy and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: P.G. Wodehouse saw his first article published when still at school, and went on to become the leading humour writer of the twentieth century. He created characters famous across the English-speaking world, such as Rupert Psmith, Stanley Ukridge, Uncle Fred, the inhabitants of the Drones Club, Bertie Wooster and Jeeves, and Lord Emsworth and his beloved Empress, all of whom remain as popular today as they were when they first appeared all those years ago. But behind all the brilliant metaphors that make us laugh out loud, there is a surprising background of reality. Wodehouse didn't create his stories from scratch; he used real settings and exaggerated the characteristics of people he knew. With examples of Wodehouse's unique imagery, the P.G. Wodehouse Miscellany follows the development and progress of his legendary characters, tells us where Wodehouse got his ideas from and demonstrates why his admirers included Bertrand Russell, Berthold Brecht, George Orwell, Rudyard Kipling and the Kaiser. This informative little miscellany will be a must for all fans of P.G. Wodehouse.

Download or read book Jeeves aneb anglick Saturnin written by Grenville Wodehouse Pelham and published by Edika. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Byl anglický sluha Jeeves předlohou českého Saturnina? Traduje se, že se Zdeněk Jirotka v případě Saturnina nechal inspirovat příběhy sluhy Jeevese, o kterém psal britský humorista Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse. Podobnost zde určitě existuje – mladý, bohatý a poněkud floutkovský Bertie Wooster má stejně jako Jiří Oulický distingovaného sluhu, který vyniká neobyčejným intelektem, vysokou mírou vzdělanosti a nečekanými řešeními problémů svého pána. Sluha Jeeves je v Británii velmi oblíbený. P. G. Wodehouse (1881–1975) o něm v průběhu let 1915–1974 napsal 35 povídek a 11 románů, z nichž některé byly zfilmovány, objevily se v rozhlasovém zpracování nebo jako muzikály a v televizním seriálu BBC.
