The Code of the Woosters

Jeeves to the Rescue

By: P. G. Wodehouse

Narrated by: Jonathan Cecil

Witty Wodehouses�s best-loved creation is the master-servant team of Bertie Wooster, the charming nitwit, and Jeeves, his effortlessly superior valet and protector. Newsweek says "they are at their best in The Code of the Woosters." This installment involves Gussie Fink-Nottle, the soupey Madeline Bassett, old Pop Bassett, the unscrupulous Stiffy Byng, the Rev. H.P. ("Stinker") Pinker, an eighteenth-century cow-creamer, and a liberal dose of the imperious Aunt Dahlia. There you have it: jolly good fun and grins galore! Jeeves once more to the rescue!©1938, 1966 Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, held by Trustees of the Wodehouse Estate (P)1990, 2000 Chivers Audio Books

Laugh-out-loud ridiculousness

Wodehouse isn’t for everyone, but if you appreciate light British comedy, then he is perfection. My sister and I grew up reading these books, and we both laughed aloud as we listened to The Code of the Woosters on a recent road trip. Pure escapism.

First PG W

I finally listened to one of his books and enjoyed it. The story was even more clever than I expected. I am going to listen to more of them.

It took three or four chapters for me to fully comprehend the depth of humor of this author. But it is superb. It takes attention to detail because the callback humor is genius. Delightful

amazing performance, constant hilarity!

impossible to encapsulate or describe the marvelous work of the narrator. Wodehouse of course is wonderfully witty as always, but the cherry on top was the unexpectedly wonderful acting as voicing.
