Description

At Blandings Castle, Lord Emsworth would rather spend his days tending his prized pig, the Empress of Blandings, than dealing with the endless interruptions of polite society. When a scheming outsider and a meddling circle of would-be helpers set their sights on his beloved porker, the estate becomes a stage for farcical misunderstandings, escalating pranks, and comic rivalries. As Myra Schoonmaker’s presence adds a new layer of social pressure, Lord Emsworth must navigate schemes that threaten both his peace and his pride. With Wodehouse’s signature lightness of touch—rapid-fire wit, buoyant dialogue, and affectionate satire of English eccentricity—this novel delivers a delightfully chaotic romp through vanity, loyalty, and the absurd lengths people will go to get what they want.
