Readers know they are going to have fun when characters go by the names of Gussie Fink-Nottle and Claude Cattermole ("Catsmeat") Pirbright. What's not to love? When the Gussie Fink-Nottle/Madeleine Bassett's engagement starts to totter, Bertie is beside himself with worry. He could be the next victim in Madeleine's matrimonial mission. Actually, just about everyone is having matrimonial maladies; where's Jeeves when he's needed?
From experience, I know that humor is extremely hard to write. And to write a whole book that is screaming with wit and wild sketches is extremely difficult. Yet, PG Wodehouse does it with grace and laugh-out-loud humor aplenty. Having read more than half of the Jeeves & Wooster series, I think this is one of the best (and that is saying something).
