Something New A British Humor Classic Author:P. G. Wodehouse The sunshine of a fair Spring morning fell graciously on London town. Out in Piccadilly it's heartening warmth seemed to infuse into traffic and pedestrians alike a novel jauntiness so that bus drivers jested and even the lips of chauffeurs uncurled into not unkindly smiles.... This wonderful Wodehouse novel follows Ashe Marson into the drafty ... more »halls of Blandings Castle, where he will try to make "something new" of his life by purloining a rare Egyptian scarab - all for the best motives, of course. The resultant hilarious romp through a stately English country home also introduces other characters who recur throughout the Blandings Castle Saga - all part of the wonderful world of Wodehouse. Enjoy! "Wodehouse's idyllic world can never stale. He will continue to release future generations from captivity that may be more irksome than our own. He has made a world for us to live in and delight in." EVELYN WAUGH. "He exhausts superlatives" STEPHEN FRY. "Pure word music" DOUGLAS ADAMS.« less
