Customer #1: Thank you, Jeeves is the definition of a “feel good” read. Bertie Wooster, the well intentioned but crisis prone British Gentleman, and his faithful valet Jeeves have a falling out over Bertie’s refusal to desist from playing his banjolele. Irritated over the loss of Jeeves, Bertie goes to stay at a friend’s country cottage and a complicated and HILARIOUS series of events transpire. The dialogue is quick, crisp, dry and quintessentially British and will keep a smile on your face throughout. A classic of comedy literature.
Customer #2: The "Jeeves, That's Funny" Happy Package is the greatest thing since Doc Bottoms Aspray and I use it almost as much. After working out with my ShakeWeight, I love to Slap Chop some veggies, curl up in my Snuggie and read Thank You, Jeeves and for just a little while, forget about my failed hopes and dreams.

Part of my 2020 Social Distancing Read-a-thonThis was an excellent choice to contrast with all the grim tidings we're hearing in the news these days. I enjoyed the slapstick adventures of B. Wooster during this brief estrangement from the invaluable Jeeves.If you need a smile, maybe even a giggle or two, I would recommend this book. Bertie and his cluelessness about relating to women will fill the bill.For the past couple of years, the name P. G. Wodehouse kept popping up in interviews and articles about some of my favorite people (most notably Hugh Laurie and Neil Gaiman, among others). They praised him as THE master of British comedy. Since I admittedly like my comedy British, I decided it was time to give Wodehouse a try. The thing with Wodehouse is that he creeps up on you. During the first few chapters, I thought, "What's all the fuss about?" There is some admittedly clever language and
Bertram "Bertie" Wooster is part of the English idle rich, don't you wish you were too ? Set during the bleak Great Depression of the 1930's, these dark aspects are unseen by the clueless gentleman; that strangely gives it charm... Most of his friends are members of the notorious Drones Club in London and hardly notice the bad economic conditions either, such a bunch of nincompoops the world would be hard to find anymore. He has a valet Jeeves, much smarter than his boss and for that matter his
Over fifty books into the Wodehouse chronology and I've finally got to the first Jeeves novel! Delightful as expected, of course, that incomparable prose married with typical plotting; the novel form gives a lot more scope to antic events eventually sorted by Jeeves. There are a few plot issues, however, such as why Bertie didn't just drive to London, how was he going to pay for his train ticket, and who was getting his breakfast and bath when Brinkley was on his toot, but I'll overlook them
[9/10]In one of the scaliest threats to his bachelor state, our old acquaintance Bertram Wooster is left without the moral support of his dependable gentleman's gentleman Jeeves. It all starts with a misunderstanding about a banjolele. On one side, Bertie is convinced that assiduous practice makes perfect when learning to play his newest toy. On the other, his neighbours have given him an ultimatum - either he or his bajolele must go from his posh London residence. Jeeves joins the ranks of the
For gentle humor you can't beat Jeeves and Wooster in this novel sized story. P.C. Warning! Contains non P.C. language.Such great recall'Jeeves,' I recollect saying, on returning to the apartment, 'who was the fellow who on looking at something felt like somebody looking at something? I learned the passage at school, but it has escaped me.''I fancy the individual you have in mind, sir, is the poet Keats, who compared his emotions on first reading Chapman's Homer to those of stout Cortez when
"Oh, yes?," I said. And I said it with some acerbity.All the Jeeves and Wooster titles seem pretty interchangeable. I couldn't tell Thank You, Jeeves from Right Ho, Jeeves, without the helpful picture of Bertie playing the banjolele.(which is an actual thing, in case you were wondering)This is the adventure where Jeeves's replacement is simultaneously a Methodist, a Bolshevik, and a crazy drunk knife-wielding psycho killer.No Aunt Agathas, no Anatoles, no cow-creamers, no black shorts.
