Chronicle During Books Life at Blandings (Blandings Castle #1 & 4)

P.G. Wodehouse entices us into the demesne of Blandings Castle - an apparent paradise where it is eternal high summer, with jolly parties, tea on the lawn and love trysts in the rose garden. But for Clarence, ninth Earl of Emsworth, there is always something to disturb this tranquil scene.

This omnibus contains Something Fresh, Summer Lightning and three short stories (The Custody of the Pumpkin, Lord Emsworth Acts for the Best and Pig-hoo-o-o-o-ey).

It is no secret that I love Wodehouse. His language alone is utterly charming and idiosyncratic. Shockingly enough, I had never read any of his Blandings books before, and these three came in one volume.

I wouldn't have bought it if I'd known it was like that, but then, I seldom think when it comes to books, and I didn't even bother looking it up.This is my first Wodehouse book, and it had me in fits. Being the sort of person who is easily brought to emotional arousal, and is hyperactive at that, it is

Here's a quote:Mac had many admirable qualities but not tact. He was the sort of man who would have tried to cheer Napoleon up by talking about the Winter Sports at Moscow.
