Book Description

Publication Date: 7 Aug 2008 | Series: Jeeves & Wooster (Book 4)

A Jeeves and Wooster novel

The beefy 'Stilton' Cheesewright has drawn Bertie Wooster as red-hot favourite in the Drones club annual darts tournament - which is lucky for Bertie because otherwise Stilton would have beaten him to a pulp and buttered the lawn with him. Stilton does not, after all like men who he thinks are trifling with his fiancée's affections.

Meanwhile Bertie has committed a more heinous offence by growing a moustache, and Jeeves strongly disapproves - which is unfortunate, because Jeeves's feudal spirit is desperately needed. Bertie's Aunt Dahlia is trying to sell her magazine Milady's Boudoir to the Trotter Empire and still keep her amazing chef Anatole out of Lady Trotter's clutches. And Bertie? Bertie simply has to try to hold onto his moustache and hope he gets to the end in one piece.

Review

"It's dangerous to use the word genius to describe a writer, but I'll risk it with him" (John Humphrys )

"For as long as I'm immersed in a P.G. Wodehouse book, it's possible to keep the real world at bay and live in a far, far nicer, funnier one where happy endings are the order of the day" (Marian Keyes )

"Wodehouse always lifts your spirits, no matter how high they happen to be already" (Lynne Truss )

"The incomparable and timeless genius - perfect for readers of all ages, shapes and sizes!" (Kate Mosse )

"Not only the funniest English novelist who ever wrote but one of our finest stylists" (Susan Hill )

5.0 out of 5 stars Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit 20 Sep 2003
By "gyppy"
Format:Audio CD
The hilarious book by PG Wodehouse has been done justice in this rendition of 'Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit' It has the same fruitiness and vigour in the characters as portrayed in the book. The CD tells the story of the blundering Bertie Wooster, who as the favourite for the Drones club darts tournament has been drawn by D'arcy or 'Stilton' Cheesewright who stands to win 56 pounds if he wins , thinks that Bertie is pining with love for Florence Craye, Stiltons' fiancee, and wishes to break Bertie's spine in 5 places. Florence goes to visit Berties Aunt Dahlia and by some horrible mix up Bertie is persuaded to join her at his Aunts home in Brinkley,and as if that isn't enough there is a huge mistake with some fake pearls... Call on Jeeves the worlds brainiest gentlemans gentleman to help Bertie out of this fearful predicament. An enjoyable listen, I reccomend this to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Wodehouse 22 Nov 2000
By Mrs. K. A. Wheatley TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
It would be far too complicated to go into a Wodehouse plot. At any given moment there are usually about fifty different strands running through a story, all of which get resolved neatly at the end by the ever competent and delightful Jeeves. Bertie's moustache is the latest fashion faux pas to cause a rift between him and Jeeves. As ever, Bertie is allowed just enough rope to hang himself with before Jeeves allows him to decide to shave it off! Wondrous

5.0 out of 5 stars "I shall keep the mustache...and wear it peerlessly." 19 Jan 2006
By Mary Whipple HALL OF FAME TOP 100 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
In this peerless example of droll, tongue-in-cheek humor, P. G. Wodehouse continues the adventures of Bertie Wooster, an often silly member of the upper class who depends on his much more sensible "gentleman's gentleman," Jeeves, to keep his life from falling apart. In this novel, Wooster has been growing a mustache for the two weeks that Jeeves has been on a shrimping holiday, and he fears that Jeeves will not like it. Sure, enough Jeeves does not, and neither do any of his other friends—except for Lady Florence Craye, his former fiancée, now engaged to Stilton Cheesewright (to Bertie's great relief).

The fate of the mustache is only the starting point for Wodehouse's comedy of errors, however, as Bertie goes from London to his Aunt Dahlia's country home, where Lady Florence, Stilton Cheesewright, and Percy Gorringe, a young man who wants to produce a play based on Lady Florence's book, are also in attendance. As Lady Florence and Stilton Cheesewright play out their on-again, off-again romance, Percy is casting longing eyes at Florence, who is flirting with Bertie once again.

As is always the case with Wodehouse, events quickly become more complex. Percy wants Bertie to invest one thousand pounds in the play. Aunt Dahlia, wanting to sell her magazine, decides to "salt the mine," secretly selling her pearls so she can serialize a novel by a famous romance author to make the magazine more attractive. Her husband, at this point, decides to have the pearls appraised. Bertie takes Florence to a nightclub to "do research for her new novel," and he is arrested. Not surprisingly, it is the resilient Jeeves who comes to the rescue, time and time again, proving that good sense and grounding in the real world are far more important than the silly pretensions of Bertie and his friends.

Wodehouse's gentle satire of upperclass life makes his novels appeal to a broad spectrum of readers. His word play, consummate sense of irony, and ability to make dialogue sound simultaneously absurd and realistic create a fast-moving set of outrageous scenes in which Jeeves, the "gentleman's gentleman" proves to be the real hero, the one person who knows how to live in this silly world. n Mary Whipple

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome
As expected, this is ace. Hordern is excellent, Briers is a little too old but enthusiastic enough, and Wodehouse's brilliant dialogue is well served.
