"Right Ho, Jeeves" by P. G. Wodehouse is a comedic novel written in the early 20th century, specifically during the 1920s. The story revolves around the misadventures of the hapless protagonist, Bertram Wooster, and his remarkably clever valet, Jeeves, as they navigate the complexities of love and social expectations among their upper-class acquaintances. The opening portion of the novel introduces the reader to Wooster's unique narrative style, characterized by humor and self-awareness. He initially reflects on the challenges of storytelling before jumping into a convoluted situation involving his friend Gussie Fink-Nottle, who has come to London unexpectedly for a romantic pursuit. Wooster outlines his recent trip to Cannes with his Aunt Dahlia and cousin Angela, setting the stage for a series of comedic entanglements. He learns that Gussie, known for his shyness and obsession with newts, is in love with Madeline Bassett, a girl from Cannes, and that he has engaged Jeeves to help him win her over, a scenario that promises to spiral into humorous chaos as the narrative unfolds.

P. G. Wodehouse

Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (always known as ‘Plum’) wrote more than ninety novels and some three hundred short stories over 73 years. He is widely recognised as the greatest 20th-century writer of humour in the English language.

Perhaps best known for the escapades of Bertie Wooster and Jeeves, Wodehouse also created the world of Blandings Castle, home to Lord Emsworth and his cherished pig, the Empress of Blandings. His stories include gems concerning the irrepressible and disreputable Ukridge; Psmith, the elegant socialist; the ever-so-slightly-unscrupulous Fifth Earl of Ickenham, better known as Uncle Fred; and those related by Mr Mulliner, the charming raconteur of The Angler’s Rest, and the Oldest Member at the Golf Club.

In 1936 he was awarded the Mark Twain Prize for ‘having made an outstanding and lasting contribution to the happiness of the world’. He was made a Doctor of Letters by Oxford University in 1939 and in 1975, aged 93, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. He died shortly afterwards, on St Valentine’s Day.
