About the book
The assembled company of Miss Roberta Wickham, in herself a beauty chorus; that tick of ticks Rev. Aubrey Upjohn; an American female novelist whose son is suspected of being a screwball; and the looniest of all doctors, Sir Roderick Glossop, masquerading as a butler, is too much for Bertie Wooster, especially without Jeeves, who has taken himself off to a distant resort. From there, jeeves holds a watching brief, advising and encouraging young Bertie to make of the situation what he can. The result is a riotously funny story in the traditional Wodehouse manner.
