Description
Wit and wisdom from the world of Wodehouse - a new collection of iconic quotes for every occasion!
With an introduction by Alan Titchmarsh
'The funniest writer ever to put words to paper' - Hugh Laurie
'Sunlit perfection' - Stephen Fry
'Paper has rarely been put to better use' - Caitlin Moran
A collection of wit and wisdom from the world of Wodehouse
Featuring the most iconic quotes from P.G. Wodehouse's best-loved duo, Jeeves and Wooster, According to Jeeves is the perfect treat for fans old and new!
This collection showcases Jeeves' enlightening views on everything from romance ('the female of the species is more deadly than the male, sir') to the best way to avoid an unwanted conversation ('a trip abroad might prove enjoyable'). The unfaltering valet even offers up his approach to breaking and entering ('the recognized method in vogue in the burgling industry').
From family life to travel, sports to fashion, and even philosophy - the ingenious Jeeves has always got the answer. And now readers can benefit from his boundless wit and wisdom in one neat package.
According to Jeeves is the ultimate stocking filler, and a little slice of joy to satisfy even the most learned Wodehouse fan.
'Ingenious. Worth reading again and again' - Spectator
'Incomparable and timeless genius' - Kate Mosse

About the Author
P. G. Wodehouse (1881-1975) is widely regarded as the greatest comic writer of the twentieth century. Wodehouse wrote more than seventy novels and 200 short stories, creating numerous much-loved characters - the inimitable Jeeves and Wooster, Lord Emsworth and his beloved Empress of Blandings, Mr Mulliner, Ukridge, and Psmith. His humorous articles were published in more than eighty magazines, including Punch, over six decades. He was also a highly successful music lyricist, once with over five musicals running on Broadway simultaneously. P.G. Wodehouse was awarded the Mark Twain Prize for 'an outstanding and lasting contribution to the happiness of the world'.
