Description

When Jeeves takes a well-earned holiday, Bertie Wooster discovers that the world has no intention of behaving itself in his absence. Pulled from the comfortable inertia of London to Brinkley Court, he finds Aunt Dahlia’s household tangled in schemes, social pressures, and a business arrangement with an American that threatens to go spectacularly wrong. As Bertie tries to help his cousin Gussie Fink-Nottle and navigate the fallout from a vicious anonymous review, misunderstandings multiply and every “simple” errand becomes a new comedic crisis. With Wodehouse’s signature lightness of touch—rapid-fire dialogue, farcical momentum, and affectionate satire of class and respectability—this is a classic Jeeves-and-Wooster romp about improvisation, loyalty, and the chaos that follows when the master planner is away.
