Pigs Have Wings

De: P. G. Wodehouse

Narrado por: Jeremy Sinden

Can the Empress of Blandings win the Fat Pigs class at the Shropshire Show for the third year running? Galahad Threepwood, Beach the butler, and others have put their shirt on this, and for Lord Emsworth it will be paradise on earth. But a substantial obstacle lurks in the way: Queen of Matchingham, the new sow of Sir Gregory Parsloe. Galahad knows this pretender to the crown must be pignapped. But can the Empress in turn avoid a similar fate?

In this classic Blandings novel, pigs rise above their bulk to vanish and reappear in the most unlikely places, while young lovers are crossed and re-crossed in every room in Blandings Castle.

The perfect Wodehouse narrator!

Here is delightful Wodehouse story. All the Blandings stories are fun, and this is one of the middle ones (Better to start with Something Fresh or Leave it to PSmith) but wow, knowing the characters and the lay of the land round Blandings, this story is such fun! And Jeremy Sinden is (sadly, was) my favorite narrator for these stories.

Word Magician

Once again, Wodehouse delights with his uncanny ability to craft silliness into sentences of blinding brilliance. This time there are two pigs and double the high-jinx.

Pure joy.

This is a sequel to Blue Moon and like that wonderful work, it is delicious. Jeremy Sinden's performance actually enhances both books. I don't think he should be allowed to do anything else but read brilliant, idiotic comic literature aloud. I will spend my credits on anything he reads.

Cute

A fun, fast listen following the Wodehouse method. A recommended road trip or beach listen.

sublime

my favorite Wodehouse reader may be Jonathan Cecil but Jeremy Sinden does Blandings so well. the story is brilliant and the pace perfect.
