I am always and eternally a fan of the humor and wit of Woodehouse. I like Jeeves and Wooster in any form and with any good reader. This reader Jonathan Cecil does a splended job of reproducing the voice of all the characters that Woodehouse invented and wrote clever and mixed-up tales about. Jeeves. The perfect butler, and Bertie Wooster, who is a fine example of an upper-class wealthy young man who doesn't work and has some of the silliest friend ever written about. You will meet Bertie's friend, Gussie Fink-Nottle who appears in many of the tales. Also here is the lovely Madeline Bassette who has been engaged to Bertie and still is most anxious to marry anyone. So after fighting with Gussie she pursues Bertie. Things and people get all mixed up and into a lot of hilarious situations.

If you have not become acquainted with the Woodehouse humor as yet this is a wonderful way to enjoy his words and the character he brings to life in an earlier time in England when money got you into good clubs and goods where were you played, drank and generally fooled around.
