    About this ebook

    Psmith in the City P. G. Wodehouse - P. G. Wodehouse (1881-1975) was a beloved British humorist whose writing career spanned nearly every literary mode. His discerning wit and effortless prose gained him international praise. In his delightful series of Psmith novels, Wodehouse tracks the adventures of an adroit dandy, unfazed by even the most tumultuous situations. The Psmith tales are classics of British comic melodrama, sending the reader through a lighthearted world with an unshakeable Psmith at the helm. In "Psmith in the City", the adventure continues, following the novel's namesake and his cricket-obsessed companion Mike Jackson in their new life in finance at the New Asiatic Bank. As is expected, hilarity ensues when their passion for cricket becomes an obstacle to successful employment. In this novel we see all of Wodehouse's comic genius and mastery of farce. Wodehouse is no moralist, zealot, or philosopherhe is a humorist, and a brilliant one at that, who bring levity to a heavy world. The power of humor is here at its highest in the witty "Psmith in the City."

    P. G. Wodehouse

    Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (1881-1975) was an English author. Though he was named after his godfather, the author was not a fan of his name and more commonly went by P.G Wodehouse. Known for his comedic work, Wodehouse created reoccurring characters that became a beloved staple of his literature. Though most of his work was set in London, Wodehouse also spent a fair amount of time in the United States. Much of his work was converted into an “American” version, and he wrote a series of Broadway musicals that helped lead to the development of the American musical. P.G Wodehouse’s eclectic and prolific canon of work both in Europe and America developed him to be one of the most widely read humorists of the 20th century.
