P. G. Wodehouse
It takes a lot of effort for Jimmy Crocker to become Piccadilly Jim – nights on the town roistering, headlines in the gossip columns, a string of broken hearts and breaches of promise. Eventually he becomes rather good at it and manages to go to pieces with his eyes open. But no sooner has Jimmy cut a wild swathe through fashionable London than his terrifying Aunt Nesta decides he must mend his ways. He then falls in love with the girl he has hurt most of all, and after that things get complicated.
In a dizzying plot, impersonations pile on impersonations so that (for reasons that will become clear, we promise) Jimmy ends up having to pretend he’s himself. Does he deserve a happy ending? Listen and find out.

PICCADILLY JIM

IT'S HARD TO MAKE THAT CLAIM AS I BELIEVE ALL OF PG'S NOVELS ARE FAR FAR ABOVE THE EXEMPLARY MARK
MR WODEHOUSE'S ABILITY TO CREATE CHARACTERS OUT OF OF STRANDS OF SPIDER WEBS MAGIC AND STARDUST SHINES THROUGH IN THIS NOVEL
THE READER IS TAKEN ON A ROLLICKING ROLLER COASTER RIDE OF RIOTOUS PROPORTIONS

KEEP THE ANTICS STRAIGHT AND YOU'LL HAVE AN EVEN BETTER TIME
OR DON'T BOTHER TO KEEP ANY OF IT STRAIGHT AND JUST ENJOY LISTENING TO PG'S IMAGINATION RUN WILD AND JONATHAN CECIL'S WONDERFUL AND INSPIRED CHARACTER CREATIONS AND NARRATION
JONATHAN'S INFLECTIONS AND ABILITY TO CREATE THE SUITABLE VOICE FOR THE MANY VARYING CHARACTERS IS LIKE TAKING A MASTER'S CLASS AT UNIVERSITY

In fact, I’ll add to Usborne's charge sheet: Jimmy, an American, is supposed to be the Englishman Algernon Bayliss (where’s his accent?); if he and Ann Chester ever got Mrs. Pett’s son Ogden to that dog’s hospital on Long Island, how long before New York’s finest (and / or the FBI) found him? I reiterate: I don’t care. Wodehouse insulates me from the jolts of life’s potholes. And Miss Trimble, that almost-too-capable employee of the International Detective Agency, is one of my favorite secondary Wodehouse creations (she hates men and yet spends her off hours reading Schopenhauer). After that, who needs credibility, faint or otherwise?
I’ve always enjoyed Frederick Davidson’s reading of this one and would never have tried Jonathan Cecil’s fine performance had it not been for Audible Plus.
But I Thought We Were Here to Have Fun...
