Som det anstår en Wooster

Description: When Bertie Wooster goes to Totleigh Towers to pour oil on the troubled waters of a lovers' breach between Madeline Bassett and Gussie Fink-Nottle, he isn’t expecting to see Aunt Dahlia there – nor to be instructed by her to steal some silver. But purloining the antique cow creamer from under the baleful nose of Sir Watkyn Bassett is the least of Bertie’s tasks. He has to restore true love to both Madeline and Gussie and to the Revd Stinker Pinker and Stiffy Byng – and confound the insane ambitions of would-be Dictator Roderick Spode and his Black Shorts. It’s a situation that only Jeeves can unravel…

Pigs Have Wings

Description: P.G. Wodehouse was the 20th century's answer to William Shakespeare reproduced as musical comedy. In Pigs Have Wings, Mr. Wodehouse produced one of his very best efforts. As usual, the themes involve a satire of romantic love, miscommunications between the sexes, the vapid interests of the titled class, and the silliness of people in general. As the book opens, Clarence, ninth Earl of Emsworth finds himself faced with a threat to the supremacy of his pig, Empress of Blandings, in the Fat Pigs class at the Shropshire Agricultural Show. Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe, Bart, of Matchingham Hall, had already hired away Clarence's pig handler, George Cyril Wellbeloved . . . and Clarence is sure that some new skullduggery will soon follow. As the story develops, we find that it's all too true. Soon both pig camps are doing their best to knobble the other man's pig. With everyone else having a bet on the outcome, many other people are soon engaged in trying to sabotage one pig or the other. It's the most pignapping fun caper you can imagine!

Jeeves och feodalandan

Description: Vem hade kunnat ana att Bertie Woosters nyanlagda lilla tangorabatt en studie i rött och enligt ägarens mening prickarnas prick över i skulle bli den tuva som så när hade stjälpt hela Berties lyckolass? Föga anade han, där han stod framför spegeln i sin lya och stolt smekte den rödlätta grodden, att han därmed utmanade ett öde hemskare än döden. Hade inte Jeeves ryckt till undsättning på sitt genomfeodala sätt, vet ingen hur det hade kunnat gå. Möjligen kan man våga en gissning att denna bok JEEVES OCH FEODALANDAN då skulle ha blivit något helt annat förmodligen en av världslitteraturens stora tragedier, värdig en Dostojevskij eller någon av de andra ryssarna.

Hot Water

Description: The house-party at Chateau Blissac, Brittany features a rather odd array of guests this year. Mr. J. Wellington Gedge is hoping for some peace and quiet while his wife takes herself off for a while. She, however, has invited numerous visitors to the chateau, to whom he will have to play reluctant host. Senator Opal and his daughter are expected, and so is the chateau's handsome owner Vicomte de Blissac.
When a certain letter goes missing, landing the Senator in the proverbial hot water, it's up to Packy Franklyn, a great pal of the Vicomte's, to sort out the mess. Unfortunately, this involves a little light safe-cracking.

Farbror Dynamit

Description: We might save everyone trouble by not bothering to review Wodehouse audiobooks. Instead, we could simply announce, "Here's a new one. Come and get it!" However, as excellent as the recordings usually are, not every Wodehouse text is wonderful, so we must carry on. Happily, Uncle Dynamite is another winner. First published in 1948, it is one of the few books about Uncle Fred (a.k.a. Lord Ickenham) and the usual complicated Wodehouse story line: A loves B but is engaged to C, whom D secretly loves, and so on. Of course, with Uncle Fred spreading sweetness and light, generous helpings of happy endings can be counted on. What sets this book apart is its outstanding dialog, which gives reader Jonathan Cecil broad scope to spread his wonderful gift for voices. A real treat for those who appreciate exquisite language; highly recommended.

Fabror Fred i vårhumör

Description: The arrival of cheerful Uncle Fred at castle Blandings signals the eruption of chaos, farce and romantic couplings galore. Fred throws a number of spanners into the works whilst dogmatically pursuing his own agendas, and generally has a rollicking time, despite the long-suffering Baxter's best efforts to avert disaster! This is a real treat of a listen for any Wodehouse fans out there, and a real laugh for anyone who enjoys a good old British hoorah!
