Аннотация:
The works in this volume provide a wonderful introduction to Wodehouse's oeuvre and his unique talent for joining fantastic plots with authentic emotion. In The Code of the Woosters, Wodehouse's most famous duo, Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet Jeeves, risks all to steal a cream jug. Uncle Fred in the Springtime, part of the beloved Blandings Castle series, follows Uncle Fred as he attempts to rescue Lord Emsworth from the Duke of Dunstable, who is plotting to purloin the Earl's favorite pig. Fourteen short stories feature some of Wodehouse's most memorable characters, and an autobiographical piece from his memoir Over Seventy provides a revealing look into Wodehouse's life.
