"Mr. Wodehouse's idyllic world can never stale."Evelyn Waugh
My Man Jeeves, first published in 1919, introduced the world to affable, indolent Bertie Wooster and his precise, capable valet, Jeeves. Some of the finest examples of humorous writing found in English literature are woven around the relationship between these two men of very different classes and temperaments. Where Bertie is impetuous and feeble, Jeeves is coolheaded and poised.
This collection, the first book of Jeeves and Wooster stories, contains eight stories, including "Absent Treatment," "Helping Freddie," "Rallying round Old George," "Doing Clarence a Bit of Good," "Fixing It for Freddie," and "Bertie Changes His Mind."
Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (1881-1975) was born in England. After working for a bank for two years, he turned to journalism and story writing. He moved to the United States after World War II and became a citizen. In all, he wrote more than ninety books, and his work has won worldwide acclaim.
Simon Prebble, a British born performer, is a stage and television actor and veteran narrator of some three hundred audiobook titles. As one of AudioFile's "Golden Voices," he has received over twenty Earphones Awards. He lives in New York.
