Product Description

Product Description

It is a time of stress at Market Snodsbury as Bertie must protect himself from the affections of Madeleine Bassett. "The prospect of being linked for life to a girl who would come down at breakfast and put her hands over my eyes and say 'Guess who' had given my morale a sickening wallop. It is always my policy in times of crisis to try to look on the bright side, but I make one proviso - viz. that there has to be a bright side to look on, and in the present case there wasn't even the sniff of one." If only Jeeves could come to the aid of the young master ...

5.0 out of 5 stars If only all politics could be this funny, 23 Nov 2000
By Mrs. K. A. Wheatley "katywheatley" (Leicester, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Bertie has agreed to help his friend Ginger get elected so that he can win the love of the martinet Florence. Total madness ensues involving porringers and policemen, disreputable butlers and cats. Naturally Bertie escapes marriage by the skin of his teeth yet again. Thank God for Jeeves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wodehouse brings Vim and Vigour to Politics., 4 Jul 2008
`Much Obliged, Jeeves' brings the two longest running sagas through the Jeeves and Wooster stories together. The oldest saga being that of Bertie being obliged to become engaged to the dreadful Florence Crane if she breaks her engagement which was featured in the first, although not first written, story `Jeeves Takes Charge' (from `Carry On Jeeves') and continued through the novels, `Joy in the Morning' and `Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit' where it first collided with the Madeline Basset saga which had previously been recounted in `Right Ho, Jeeves', `The Code of the Woosters' and `The Mating Season' and then again in `Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves'.

Florence Crane is engaged to Ginger Winship, who is standing as the conservative candidate in Market Snodsburry, should Ginger fail to be elevated to parliament then Florence, whom cannot abide failure, will return Ginger to store and expect Bertie to don the sponge bag trousers as his replacement. Although Jeeves and Wooster are canvassing on Gingers behalf complications arise when Ginger falls in love with his secretary and conspires to loose the election.

Madeline is engaged to Lord Sidcup whom is on hand to speak on Gingers behalf however his success on the campaign trail is making him contemplate giving up his title to stand in his own right as Roderick Spode. As Wodehouse points out `titles are to females like catnip is to cats' and Madeline keen to be Lady Sidcup has made it clear she would become Madeline Wooster before she would become Madeline Spode.

A political pot boiler to worthy of our own tabloid press, only Jeeves and Wodehouse will be able to scare up a happy ending.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is THE best book, 5 April 2000
By A Customer
P.G. Wodehouse is a genius. How he can write a book this good is beyond me. It tells the story of Bertie Wooster and his friends, and how they get into trouble, and fail to get out of it. They have only one hope; Bertie's valet Jeeves. Will they get out of marrying the awful Florence and Madeleine? Buy this brilliant book to find out!
