Description
A gloriously witty novel from Sebastian Faulks using P.G. Wodehouse's much-loved characters, Jeeves and Wooster, fully authorised by the Wodehouse estate.
Brings the peerless Jeeves and Wooster barrelling back to life — Daily Mail
Jeeves and the Wedding Bells is a novel that features Bertie Wooster staying at the stately home of Sir Henry Hackwood in Dorset. He is more than familiar with the country-house set-up: he is a veteran of the cocktail hour and, thanks to Jeeves, his gentleman's personal gentleman, is never less than immaculately dressed.
On this occasion, however, it is Jeeves who is to be seen in the drawing room while Bertie finds himself below stairs — which he doesn't care for at all.
His predicament is, of course, all in the name of love...
A masterpiece... a pitch-perfect undertaking — Spectator
Entirely delightful — Financial Times
Delightfully witty, packed with puns — Sunday Mirror
A polished sparkling genuine fake — Herald
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Jeeves and the Wedding Bells has been praised as a masterpiece of wit and charm. The Spectator calls it a "pitch-perfect undertaking" that made them laugh until they cried. The Sunday Mirror describes it as "delightfully witty, packed with puns," while the Telegraph highlights its traditional Wodehousian charm with farce, eccentric upper classes, and lighthearted fun. The Guardian regards it as "a wonderfully happy book," and the Daily Express endorses its satisfyingly convoluted plot as a true addition to any Wodehouse collection.
