Publisher's Summary

Bertie Wooster's friend Gussie Fink-Nottle is sentenced to 14 days for wading in the fountain at Trafalgar Square. Bertie is worried that Gussie's fiancé Madeline will be angry because she has a distressing habit of turning her attentions to Bertie when her fiancé upsets her. Bertie has the bright idea of impersonating Gussie, and showing up at Deverill Hall. The situation is wonderfully comical when Gussie shows up, posing as Bertie. Only Jeeves, arriving in his own disguise, can sort out this mess.

What the critics say

"Wodehouse and Cecil are a terrific pair. Cecil's narration is marvelous...[and] highlights the humor of Wodehouse's words." (Publishers Weekly)
"It's hard to imagine anyone better than Jonathan Cecil at reading P.G. Wodehouse....Listening to him as the deadpan genius butler Jeeves is like listening to a perfect character actor." (AudioFile)

Funny but recycled

Enjoy his humour and prose but plots seem to all be the same in essence.

Lighthearted fun!

It is the usual lighthearted fun that Jeeves and Wooster are known for. This one hinges a little too much on cringe humour for my taste, but I enjoyed it a lot nonetheless.

Always a pleasure

Even after listening to this several times, I still laugh. A PG Wodehouse adventure is unerringly clever & funny, with Jeeves and Wooster being the cream of the crop.
