Description
|
|
|
|
Seize this chance to embark on a Wodehousian voyage on the luxurious liner S.S. Atlantic in the company of Monty Bodkin, whose passion for Gertrude Butterwick knows no bounds (except those set by the wild-at-heart Hollywood starlet Lotus Blossom and her pet alligator). Also aboard are a movie mogul, the All-England ladies hockey team, and the two Tennyson brothers (one of whom has been mistaken for the late poet laureate and given a fat movie contract), as well as a chatty steward and a mouse doll in which all manner of things can be hidden. Best known as the creator of Jeeves (the impossibly wise, supremely well-mannered gentleman's gentleman) and Wooster (his unflaggingly affable but bumbling employer), Wodehouse invokes the very British spirit of a bygone era in a gentle, hilarious satire that, as Evelyn Waugh puts it, "satisfies the most sophisticated taste and the simplest."
