Review
"The works of Wodehouse continue on their unique way, unmarked by the passage of time." Kingsley Amis
Review
"Wodehouse's genius in the Jeeves and Wooster canon lies in his complete realisation of Bertie as first-person narrator....The particular joy of a Jeeves story comes from the delicious feeling one derives from being completely in Bertie's hands. His apparently confused way of expressing himself both reveals the character and manages, somehow, to develop narrative with extraordinary economy and life....Sometimes Bertie's speech moves towards a form of comic imagery so perfect that one could honestly call it poetic..." Stephen Fry, The Independent (UK)
Review
"Wodehouse's idyllic world can never stale....He has made a world for us to live in and delight in." Evelyn Waugh
