“[P. G.
Wodehouse] is known for numerous popular stories and novels about his whimsical
upper-class characters: the Honorable Bertie Wooster, Psmith, Mr. Mulliner,
Jeeves, the valet, and assorted peers. Much of the humor stems from the idle
gentleman. The books contain fantasy, affectionate satire, and the absurd comic
situations of farce. The style is very elaborate, full of verbal ingenuity,
mock pomposity, and unexpected slang.”
