  <default_description>Bertie Wooster is in the proverbial soup again. On this occasion, the problem concerns a certain cow-creamer, that should have belonged to Uncle Tom, but, with the use of trickery, was purchased by Sir Watkyn Bassett. Aunt Dahlia insists that Bertie steal it back, but Sir Watkyn and his companion Rodrick Spode are on to him. To make matters worse, Stephanie Byng also has an ingenious plot to endear her fiance to her uncle (none other than Sir Watkyn) that entails Bertie stealing the cow-creamer. And she's willing to use blackmail. Damned if he does the deed and damned if he doesn't (or rather beaten to a pulp by Spode) Bertie needs Jeeves's assistance more desperately than ever.

    <body><![CDATA[Probably my favorite &quot;funny&quot; book. It's amazingly well-written, and actually had me laughing out loud several times, which I don't often do when reading. Every individual sentence seems to have been squeezed to extract the maximum funny possible. The characters are exquisite, and the plot ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23302136">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I hadn't realized that I'd never actually read a Wodehouse, just knew of the characters and had read people influenced by him. Well, it was brilliant. Hilarious. I couldn't put it down. I love the character of Bertie Wooster - his internal commentary is miraculously funny. I love how he refers to Mi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71420330">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Same basic plot as the one other book I've read in this series: Rich and charmingly bungling Bertie Wooster gets himself into all sorts of impossible situations and relies on &quot;his man&quot; Jeeves to solve all his problems behind the scenes. <br/><br/>So why are these books so darned brillian...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66103318">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Amazingly, the Jeeves series by Wodehouse is really entertaining and sharp. I'd never have believed it if Alexander Cockburn hadn't mentioned this book as being an example of Wodehouse's insight into the English class system. Jeeves is the butler attached to the stupid but loveable Bernie Wooster. J...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/52733412">more...</a>]]></body>
