Joy in the Morning (Jeeves & Wooser #8) [B0575]

2011 PB of the 1946 original, in excellent condition. "To dive into a Wodehouse novel is to swim in some of the most elegantly turned phrases in the English language."-Ben Schott.

Follow the adventures of Bertie Wooster and his gentleman's gentleman, Jeeves, in this stunning new edition of one of the greatest comic novels in the English language. Steeple Bumphleigh is a very picturesque place. But for Bertie Wooster, it is a place to be avoided, containing not only the appalling Aunt Agatha but also her husband, the terrifying Lord Worplesdon. So when a certain amount of familial arm-twisting is applied, Bertie heads for the sticks in fear and trepidation despite the support of the irreplaceable Jeeves.

From among the many recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "This is the second Wooster and Jeeves I've had the pleasure of reading. I loved that this was a self-contained story with the perfect amount of conflict and varied, hilarious characters. I really did find this so wonderfully funny- I just don't know how Wodehouse does it, but I'm obsessed with his prose. Absolutely loved."; "A quite ridiculous story but I always enjoy spending time with Jeeves and Wooster."; "A Jeeves and Wooster novel is definitely a comfort read, and as usual with Wodehouse novels, this was a fun book, perfect to read after finishing some "heavier" stuff."; "Picked this up by chance on a hostel bookshelf, and very happy I did! I was laughing out loud at points, the writing was so good and the jokes well timed. Will definitely plan to read more Jeeves and Wooster!"; "I think this is considered to be the most "complete" book written by Wodehouse. He wrote it while under detention by Germans during WW 2, and had plenty of time to fine-tune it."
