Mr Mulliner Speaking

By P. G. Wodehouse

Categories: Humor & Entertainment, Literature & Fiction

Mr Mulliner Speaking (1929) brings back the storyteller of the Anglers' Rest for nine more tales of his relatives in love and in trouble. They include "The Reverent Wooing of Archibald," in which a young man courts a woman with his imitation of a hen laying an egg, "The Man Who Gave Up Smoking" and "Those in Peril on the Tee," a golf story with romance at stake.

• Fareed Zakaria: “P. G. Wodehouse. I’ve read almost everything he wrote. He once explained that there were two ways of writing novels. “One is mine, making the thing a sort of musical comedy without music, ignoring real life altogether; the other is going right down deep into life and not caring a damn.” He did the former better than almost anyone.”
