Any other Wodehouse enthusiasts here?
My go-to writer in bad times and good times and all the times in between. If you love witty humour, try it. Or start with the TV show with Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie (although there are so many funny things in those stories that can't be done on screen)
You're viewing a single thread.
I’ve always heard Wodehouse mentioned in the context of other authors like Pratchett and Adams.
What book would you recommend as a good starter?
I think you can pretty much hop in anywhere, they're loosely connected with a few recurring characters but most of them are pretty self-contained. But the Jeeves & Wooster ones are the classics so maybe that? I'm also partial to the Psmith stories myself (the p is silent, as in pshrimp.)
Would love to hear this as well.
I love Pratchett and now I've been reminded to read Wodehouse again. I did get the Woodhouse Ultimate Collection a couple of years ago, so I guess I better get started on it after I finish my current book.
