Производитель: "Random House, Inc." Серия: "Wooster" `To dive into a Wodehouse novel is to swim in some of the most elegantly turned phrases in the English language`Ben Schott`There are moments, Jeeves, when one asks oneself,`Do trousers matter?```The mood will pass, sir.`Aunt Dahlia has tasked Bertie with purloining an antique cow creamer from Totleigh Towers. In order to do so, Jeeves hatches a scheme whereby Bertie must charm the droopy and altogether unappealing Madeline and face the wrath of would-be dictator Roderick Spode. Though the prospect fills him with dread, when duty calls, Bertie will answer, for Aunt Dahlia will not be denied. In a plot that swiftly becomes rife with mishaps, it is Jeeves who must extract his master from trouble. Again.`To have one of his books in your hand is to possess, by way of a pill, that which can relieve anxiety, rageiness, or an afternoon-long tendency towards the sour. Paper has rarely been put to better use than printing Wodehouse`Caitlin Moran Издательство: "Random House, Inc." (2018)
