A classic Wodehouse, with loads of characters, a perfect setting in a countryside and an all confusing scenario.
The Earl of Ickenham is the one who never turns away from someone else's problems and that too when the problem involves his Godson's wedding, he does his best to solve it. And then enters, his old friend who is acting as a butler because he is in love with his master's sister, Phoebe. And Phoebe's son who is blackmailing his own Uncle with a letter.
Confused, well then now enters an American Con Artist and his wife, who also get wind of the blackmailing and try their hands at getting hold of that letter. What do you think will happen ?
Wodehouse is always a classic, and this one is a perfect read on a sunny afternoon, sitting outdoors. Which I couldn't do because I haven't seen the sun for quite some time now. Reading his books always transports me to the old countryside England that has always drawn me towards this country.
The words and the language which he uses makes me love England even more. Now, if only I could find someone who still talks like that.
