Wodehouse, P G - Thank You, Jeeves (Published in by The Folio Society in 2015. This item was published with no slipcase. Introduced by Hugh Laurie. Illustrated by Paul Cox. A treat for comedy fans: the classic Jeeves and Wooster tale presented in a spiffing new binding with an introduction by one of the biggest Wodehouse fans of them all. 'It is no use in telling me that there are bad aunts and good aunts. At the core they are all alike. Sooner or later, out pops the cloven hoof'. Bertie Wooster's lamentable performance on the banjolele is too much even for the imperturbable Jeeves. In high dudgeon, Wooster and instrument retire to a cottage in the country – only to find that the adjoining house party includes his ex-fiancée Pauline Stoker, 'one of those girls who want you to come and swim a mile before breakfast', and his old enemy Sir Roderick Glossop, a man with 'the crust of a rhinoceros'. Delightful and hilarious in equal measure, Pelham Grenville Wodehouse's writing also revels in the rhythm of its language and the precision of its plots. In this edition, reissued with a new binding, Paul Cox provides lively, effervescent illustrations, while Hugh Laurie's witty introduction is appropriately steeped in the spirit of Wodehouse. Production Details. Thank You, Jeeves book. Quarter-bound in cloth with Mondigliani paper sides. Set in Horley Old Style with University Roman display. 240 pages. 46 integrated black & white illustrations. 8.75" x 5.5". Please note this edition is not slipcased. )
