Description

The assembled company of Miss Roberta Wickham, in herself a beauty chorus; that tick of ticks Rev. Aubrey Upjohn; an American female novelist whose son is suspected of being a screwball; and the looniest of all doctors, Sir Roderick Glossop, masquerading as a butler, is too much for Bertie Wooster, especially without Jeeves, who has taken himself off to a distant resort. From there, jeeves holds a watching brief, advising and encouraging young Bertie to make of the situation what he can. The result is a riotously funny story in the traditional Wodehouse manner.

First Sentence

"JEEVES placed the sizzling eggs and b. on the breakfast table, and Reginald ('Kipper') Herring and I, licking the lips, squared our elbows and got down to it."
