What do you like about Wodehouse? Anyone you’d compare him to? |

Date: May 1st, 2024 11:18 PM Author: dun hyperactive shitlib piazza Plum was his nickname. Similar…. Dunno. Smart like Christie. Funny, kind hearted like Herriot.
Any of the Bertie series, but especially the first two or three. I never got into the animal or Blandings ones as much, but that’s just me.
Read up on his personal life. He got screwed over by the, uh, media based on his time being held captive by the Nazis in the war. Cancel Culture is not new. |

Date: May 2nd, 2024 8:53 PM Author: dun hyperactive shitlib piazza I hadn’t thought of Spode in years. Gussie Finknottle’s drunken speech on newts to the grammar school is excellent. I think Spode features in that story, too. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5523819&forum_id=2#47629646) |

Haven’t read Waugh but need to.
Side note, for a while I got Evelyn Waugh and Edith Wharton (who is great) mixed up |
