Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeeves—my man, you know—is really a most extraordinary chap. So capable. Honestly, I shouldn't know what to do without him. On broader lines he's like those chappies who sit peering sadly over the marble battlements at the Pennsylvania Station in the place marked "Inquiries." You know the Johnnies I mean. You go up to them and say: "When's the next train for Melonsquashville, Tennessee?" and they reply, without stopping to think, "Two-forty-three, track ten, change at San Francisco." And they're right every time. Well, Jeeves gives you just the same impression of omniscience. As an instance of what I mean, I remember meeting Monty Byng in Bond Street one morning, looking the last word in a grey check suit, and I felt I should never be happy till I had one like it. I dug the address of the tailors out of him, and had them working on the thing inside the hour. "Jeeves," I said that evening. "I'm getting a check suit like that one of Mr. Byng's." "Injudicious, sir," he said firmly. "It will not become you." "What absolute rot! It's the soundest thing I've struck for years." "Unsuitable for you, sir." Well, the long and the short of it was that the confounded thing came home, and I put it on, and when I caught sight of myself in the glass I nearly swooned. Jeeves was perfectly right. I looked a cross between a music-hall comedian and a cheap bookie. Yet Monty had looked fine in absolutely the same stuff. These things are just Life's mysteries, and that's all there is to it. But it isn't only that Jeeves's judgment about clothes is infallible, though, of course, that's really the main thing. The man knows everything. There was the matter of that tip on the "Lincolnshire." I forget now how I got it, but it had the aspect of being the real, red-hot tabasco. "Jeeves," I said, for I'm fond of the man, and like to do him a good turn when I can, "if you want to make a bit of money have something on Wonderchild for the 'Lincolnshire.'"

Book excerpt: _______________________________ A Jeeves and Wooster novel Jeeves is on holiday in Herne Bay, and while he's away the world caves in on Bertie Wooster. For a start, he's astonished to read in The Times of his engagement to the mercurial Bobbie Wickham. Then at Brinkley Court, his Aunt Dahlia's establishment, he finds his awful former head master in attendance ready to award the prizes at Market Snodsbury Grammar School. And finally the Brinkley butler turns out for reasons of his own to be Bertie's nemesis in disguise, the brain surgeon Sir Roderick Glossop. With all occasions informing against him, Bertie has to hightail it to Herne Bay to liberate Jeeves from his shrimping net. And after that, the fun really starts. ‘I picked up Jeeves in the Offing recently, having not read PG Wodehouse for years. Half an hour later I was still reading and laughing. He can develop a comic idea and deliver the payoff over a chapter, a paragraph, or a single sentence.’ Sadie Jones (in the Guardian)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A renowned feel-good classic of comic writing from "arguably the greatest writer of comic prose ever," gorgeous hardcover gift edition (The New York Times) “Mr. Wodehouse’s idyllic world can never stale. He has made a world for us to live in and delight in” – Evelyn Waugh Introducing two of the greatest characters created by the undisputed master of English comic prose, this is quite simply one of the funniest books ever written. Whether attempting to stay on the right side of his ghastly Aunt Agatha, evade the clutches of the forbidding Honoria Glossop, or simply having a punt on the length of local curates’ sermons, Bertie Wooster can always rely on his gentleman’s gentleman, Jeeves, for sound advice and an ingenious wheeze to get him out of a tight spot. “You don’t analyze such sunlit perfection, you just bask in its warmth and splendor.” – Stephen Fry “Wodehouse is the funniest writer—that is, the most resourceful and unflagging deliverer of fun—that the human race, a glum crowd, has yet produced.” – The New Yorker
Download or read book The Jeeves Collection written by P. G. Wodehouse and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contents: My Man Jeeves Extricating Young Gussie Right Ho, Jeeves Jeeves is a fictional character in a series of humorous short stories and novels by P. G. Wodehouse, being the highly-competent valet of a wealthy and idle young Londoner named Bertie Wooster created in 1915. Both the name "Jeeves" and the character of Jeeves have come to be thought of as the quintessential name and nature of a valet or butler, inspiring many similar characters. The premise of the Jeeves stories is that the brilliant valet is firmly in control of his rich and foppish young employer's life. Jeeves becomes Bertie Wooster's protector and all-purpose problem solver, devising subtle plans to rescue Bertie and his friends from tiresome social obligations, demanding relatives, brushes with the law, and, above all, problems involving women. Wodehouse derives much comic effect from having Bertie, his narrator, remain blissfully unaware of Jeeves's machinations, until all is revealed at the end of the story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: P.G. Wodehouse (1881-1975) was perhaps the most widely acclaimed British humorist of the twentieth century. Throughout his career, he brilliantly examined the complex and idiosyncratic nature of English upper-crust society with hilarious insight and wit. The works in this volume provide a wonderful introduction to Wodehouse’s work and his unique talent for joining fantastic plots with authentic emotion. In The Code of the Woosters, Wodehouse’s most famous duo, Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet Jeeves, risks all to steal a cream jug. Uncle Fred in the Springtime, part of the famous Blandings Castle series, follows Uncle Fred as he attempts to ruin the Duke of Blandings while he is preoccupied with his favorite pig. Fourteen stories feature some of Wodehouse’s most memorable characters, and three autobiographical pieces provide a revealing look into Wodehouse’s life. With his gift for hilarity and his ever-human tone, Wodehouse and his work have never felt more lively. With a New Introduction by John Mortimer

Book excerpt: Bertie Wooster's friend Richard "Bingo" Little is forever falling in love with a wide variety of women, and it is up to Bertie, with the aid of Jeeves, his valet, to promote or prevent these romances, depending on the suitability of the young lady. At the beginning of The Inimitable Jeeves, Bingo is infatuated with a waitress and wants Bertie to make his Uncle Mortimer, the source of his income, receptive to the idea. Jeeves suggests having Bingo read the uncle such Rosie M. Banks novels as Only a Factory Girl, in which "marriage with young persons of an inferior social status" is advocated. Bertie has to pretend that he writes the Banks novels to encourage Uncle Mortimer further. These machinations result in the uncle marrying his cook, previously Jeeves's intended. Jeeves has been plotting for this eventuality since becoming friendly with the waitress Bingo loves. Bingo next falls for Honoria Glossop, but Bertie's domineering Aunt Agatha wants her nephew to marry Honoria. Deciding to get out of this jam without Jeeves's help, Bertie pushes Honoria's young brother into a pond so that Bingo can save the boy and be a hero in his beloved's eyes, but on his way to the pond, fickle Bingo discovers someone else. Bertie finds himself engaged to Honoria, who says that he must get rid of Jeeves. The valet conspires with Claude and Eustace, Bertie's prankster twin cousins, to convince Honoria's father, Sir Roderick, a prominent psychiatrist, that Bertie is crazy.
