'Is there a better P. G. Wodehouse character than Psmith? No there is not. Thank you for agreeing' John Self 'An incomparable and timeless genius' Kate Mosse _____________________________________ 'It seems to me that you and I were made for each other. I am your best friend's best friend and we both have a taste for stealing other people's jewellery.' Lady Constance Keeble has both an imperious manner and a valuable diamond necklace. The precarious peace of Blandings is shattered when her necklace becomes the object of desire for some well-connected jewel thieves - among them the Honourable Freddie Threepwood, who wants the reward money for a bookmaking business, and Psmith, the elegant socialist. On patrol with the impossible task of bringing order to Blandings is the Efficient Baxter, whose strivings lead to a memorable encounter with the castle flowerpots.

A friend gave me this book over thirty years ago in college and it remains among my favorites. It features the well-known word love of the author and the dry, keen observations of something like an ethologist, studying a charming, quirky species of waterfowl.

wodehouse as usual
This is another wodehouse book that doesn't disappoint. grips you from begining to end and will have you crying with laughter. wodehouse keeps your attention with every sentence(sometimes you need to read something twice to really get it) . intertwining plot that keeps you surprised and entertained.the characters are all uniques. Lord Emsworth eat sleeps and doesnt stop talking about his garden and his never-ending disagreements with his gardener. baxter is a typical secretary that's so too organized and efficient for his own good. and of course psmith(his name says a lot about him - "pmith, the p is silent") . he'll do something outrageous just to see what happnes or because he knows he can get away with it.he always gets what he wants.if you just want to get away to a fun place for a while this is a great choice.

Another fun romp
If you're a fan of Wodehouse, this book does not disappoint. It's got the following great Wodehouse elements: 1. two young couples who are in love and broke; 2. a doddering earl; 3. A diamond necklace; 4. A big drafty mansion; 5. hilarious plot twists. What more can be said without giving it all away?
