À propos de cet audio
“I have the honour to offer up to you, thanks to the good people of Audible, a selection of some of my very favourite Wodehouse. If these stories are new to you I hope it will be the beginning of a lifelong pleasure, if some or all are familiar I hope you will welcome them like old friends.” (Stephen Fry)
Audible Studios presents this brand new performance by Stephen Fry of some of his favourite Jeeves stories from P.G. Wodehouse, with an exclusive introduction.
The Jeeves Collection contains:
The Inimitable Jeeves
A classic collection of 11 stories featuring some of the funniest episodes in the life of Bertie Wooster, gentleman, and Jeeves, his gentleman's gentleman - in which Bertie's terrifying Aunt Agatha appears, seeking whom she may devour, while Bertie's friend Bingo Little falls in love with seven different girls in succession (including the best-selling romantic novelist Rosie M. Banks). And Bertie, with Jeeves's help, hopes to evade the clutches of the terrifying Honoria Glossop.
Carry On Jeeves
10 more marvellous stories introduce us to Jeeves, whose first ever duty is to cure Bertie's raging hangover ('If you would drink this, sir...it is a little preparation of my own invention. It is the Worcester Sauce that gives it its colour. The raw egg makes it nutritious. The red pepper gives it its bite. Gentlemen have told me they have found it extremely invigorating after a late evening.')
Right-Ho Jeeves
The second full-length novel featuring Jeeves and Bertie Wooster, after Thank You, Jeeves. The story is mostly set at Brinkley Court, the home of Bertie's Aunt Dahlia, and introduces the recurring characters Gussie Fink-Nottle and Madeline Bassett. Bertie's friend Tuppy Glossop and cousin Angela Travers also feature in the novel, as does Brinkley Court's prized chef, Anatole.
The Code of the Woosters
The third full-length novel to feature Bertie Wooster and his valet Jeeves. It introduces Sir Watkyn Bassett, the owner of a country house called Totleigh Towers, where the story takes place, and his intimidating friend Roderick Spode. It is also a sequel to Right Ho, Jeeves, continuing the story of Bertie's newt-fancying friend Gussie Fink-Nottle and Gussie's droopy and overly sentimental fiancée, Madeline Bassett.
Joy in the Morning
Bertie is persuaded to brave the home of his fearsome Aunt Agatha and her husband Lord Worplesdon, knowing that his former fiancée, the beautiful and formidably intellectual Lady Florence Craye will also be in attendance.

And very soon he is—shot in the head in the vicar's own study. Faced with a surfeit of suspects, only the inscrutable Miss Marple can unravel the tangled web of clues that will lead to the unmasking of the killer.

England, 1920.

Chipstone is about the sleepiest town you could have the misfortune to meet. But then, from the edge of a quarry, through the driving rain, Eleanor is shocked to see a man shot and killed in the distance. Before she can climb down to the spot, the villain is gone and the body has vanished.

Perhaps the most influential science book ever written, On the Origin of Species has continued to fascinate for more than a century after its initial publication. Its controversial theory that populations evolve and adapt through a process known as natural selection led to heated scientific, philosophical, and religious debate, revolutionizing every discipline in its wake. With its clear, concise, and surprisingly enjoyable prose, On the Origin of Species is both captivating and edifying.

It’s so much fun to listen to Stephen Fry read P.G. Wodehouse. When I listen, I forget that it’s one person reading. It feels like a full top-notch cast playing out the misadventures of Bertie Wooster and the cunning rescues orchestrated by Jeeves. I’ve re listened to the entire audiobook several times and I laugh every time. I only wish there was even more.

Audiobook Masterclass!
Stephen Fry’s narration of The Jeeves Collection is a masterclass in audiobook performance, a true delight for both long-time fans of P.G. Wodehouse’s iconic stories and newcomers alike. Fry’s voice is the perfect match for the wit and whimsy of Wodehouse’s writing, bringing the characters and their zany adventures to life in a way that feels fresh and utterly engaging.
Fry’s voice work as Jeeves, the ever-dignified and unflappable valet, truly shines. His delivery of Jeeves’ calm, measured tone is pitch-perfect, contrasting beautifully with Bertie’s more frenetic energy and elevating the humour even further.
What’s more, Fry manages to capture the essence of Wodehouse’s absurd yet highly entertaining world, ensuring that listeners are fully immersed in Bertie’s whimsical, often ridiculous, universe. Whether it’s a bungled engagement, a scheming aunt, or a disastrous attempt at social climbing, Fry’s narration transforms each episode into a delightful experience.
In short, Stephen Fry’s narration of The Jeeves Collection is a tour de force, blending his remarkable talent for vocal characterization with a deep understanding of Wodehouse’s comedic genius. It’s an absolute must-listen for anyone who enjoys sharp humour, British wit, or just a good old-fashioned laugh.

A delightfully trivial jaunt
This series is witty and effervescent with the combined efforts of Wodehouse and Fry. I am a fan of a good comedy of manners; Stephen Fry is right this is a delightful jaunt through a musical comedy with no music.
