Right Ho, Jeeves (Jeeves, #6)
by P.G. Wodehouse
by P.G. Wodehouse
1. Free on Kindle. Go get it.
2. I first came upon Jeeves and Wooster as a youngster watching PBS. Because I'm a nerd. Yes, I knew that already. It also introduced me to the comedy of Frye and Laurie so that makes it a great find.
The books are even better. I'm just reviewing this one, but there are plenty of others out there. Wodehouse has series of short stories with Jeeves and Wooster tales and a few novels. This is a novel and it is filled with the language that makes all the stories so great.
The tales are told from the point of view of Bertie Wooster, a foppish, jazz-age British young aristocrat living it up on his inheritance and charm. His language is alive and is indescribable. Basically, Bertie is well-intentioned but dumb. His butler, Jeeves, though, is smart as a whip and handles the problems of his master and friends.
