This rollicking semi-autobiographical novel weaves a tale of Wodehouse's early days as a writer, romance gone awry, and the colorful characters he encountered.

James Orlebar Cloyster, in order to marry his true love, embarks on a scheme of such clever deception that he very nearly manages to ruin both his romance and his career. Told from multiple viewpoints - that of James, his fiancée, and friends - Not George Washington lampoons London society, literary pretension, the West End stage, playwrights, playgoers, bohemian life, and the newspapers of the day.

The story was going along voluptuously and then ended abruptly. Also the audio is old so it skips.

Good reader, story not so good.

Writing is great. Narration is good. Recording is the worst I've ever heard. Crackles and hissing would be fine - I've never been picky about sound quality. This has very frequent skipping where many words are missing. It could be whole sentences missing - it's hard to tell. There are authors where this would be less destructive of the story, but a Wodehouse book is about the beauty of the language and phrasing.

Great Book - Horrible Recording

For what sounds like a partially autobiographical fiction of Plum’s early days in London, eking out a living as a writer and struggling to survive, it would be hard to do better than this early novel. Is it hilarious? Perhaps not. Genius? Not quite yet. But is it brilliant for an early work by an author under 30 years old? Absolutely, yes.

Not Wodehouse’s best, but certainly one of his earliest
