P.G. Wodehouse: A Life in Letters Fashion

Description
Wodehouse said letters make a wonderful oblique form for an autobiography, and Sophie Ratcliffe s expertly edited collection amply proves the point.
Spectator
One of the funniest and most admired writers of the twentieth century, P. G. Wodehouse always shied away from the idea of a biography. A quiet, retiring man, he expressed himself through the written word. His letters – collected here – provide an illuminating biographical accompaniment to legendary comic creations such as Jeeves, Wooster, Psmith and the Empress of Blandings.
This is a book every lover of Wodehouse will want to possess.
The letters, gossipy in the kindliest, amused bemused manner, bear true witness to the wide-ranging influences on Wodehouse s best-known novels and best-loved characters.
