Description
Bill (Lord) Rowcester was well and truly in the gumbo. With the benefit of hindsight he could see that setting himself up as a Silver Ring bookie might not have been his smartest move ever. Particularly when being down on his dibbs threatens his oncoming nuptials with the sterling Jill Wyvern. Lucky for Bill he had the land-lease of Jeeves. Lucky indeed that the fish-fed mastermind’s formidable genius was at liberty to take a header into such teasers as borrowing the stellar Mrs. Spottsworth’s pendent for an hour or three or overseeing the added ingredients of Abbey’s Derby Dinner, to say nothing of his lordship’s mauve pajamas.

This classic Wodehouse novel is revisited in an audio edition that features a spirited reading from Nigel Lambert, whose remarkably entertaining performance will dazzle listeners from beginning to end. Set in post-WWII Britain, the ninth earl of Rowcaster—Bill for short—has hired a new servant: the inimitable gentleman's personal gentleman, Jeeves. Wodehouse's wildly colorful characters offer Lambert an opportunity to shine, and he never fails to disappoint. His reading features a host of unique voices and rich, textured dialects; it also possesses a theatricality that few audiobook narrators manage to master. While Lambert's reading may be slightly over the top at times, it is only because the writing demands it. A truly rousing listening experience. A Vintage paperback. (Aug.)
