Blandings Castle is in uproar and there are suspects a plenty, from Galahad Threepwood (who is writing memoirs so scandalous they will rock the aristocracy to its foundations) to the efficient Baxter, chilling former secretary to Lord Emsworth. Even Beach the Butler seems deeply embroiled. And what of Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe, Clarence's arch rival, and his passion for prize winning pigs? This comic masterpiece is vintage Blandings, and P.G. Wodehouse at his best.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Reprint. First published in 1928, this is a fifth impression of 1936. Orange boards with black titling and Jenkins' prancing centaur on base of spine. No jacket, boards slightly scuffed at extremities, corners slightly rubbed and bruised, previous owner's name in pencil to ffep, slight foxing to page block, internally quite clean and tight, overall a vg copy for its age. 312pp. The peaceful slumber of the Worcester village of Rudge in the Vale is about to be rudely disrupted. First there's a bitter feud between peppery Colonel Wyvern and the Squire of Rudge Hall, rich but miserly Lester Carmody. Second, that arch villain Chimp Twist has opened a health farm, and he and Soapy and Dolly Molloy are planning a fake burglary so Lester can diddle his insurance company. After the knockout drops are served, things get a little complicated. But will Lester's nephew John win over his true love, Colonel Wyvern's daughter Pat, and restore tranquillity to the idyll? It's a close run thing.

Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. Jacket by Helena Masters (illustratore). 1st Edition. First edition, subsequent impression with number line '4 6 8 10 9 7 5 3'. Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners very slightly bruised, not price clipped (£30.00), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy, looks hardly read. 602pp, illustrated. One of the funniest and most admired writers of the twentieth century, P. G. Wodehouse always shied away from the idea of a biography. A quiet, retiring man, he expressed himself through the written word. His letters, collected and expertly edited here, provide an illuminating biographical accompaniment to legendary comic creations such as Jeeves, Bertie Wooster, Psmith and the Empress of Blandings. Drawing on hitherto unpublished sources, these letters give an unrivalled insight into Wodehouse, covering his schooldays at Dulwich College, the family's financial reverses which saw his hopes of university dashed, life in New York working in musical comedy with Jerome Kern and George and Ira Gershwin, the years of fame as a novelist, and the unhappy episode in 1940 where he was interned by the Germans and later erroneously accused of broadcasting pro Nazi propaganda. It is a book every lover of Wodehouse will want to possess.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Jacket by Frank Ford (illustratore). 1st Edition. Stated first edition, first impression. Some edge wear and chipping to top and bottom of jacket and spine, 1"loss to top of spine and front jacket, corners rubbed with small loss, folds slightly rubbed, slight time staining to back jacket, but overall jacket bright and unsunned. Not price clipped (8/6), no inscriptions, slight lean, internally clean and tight, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 252pp. When the moon is full at Blandings, strange things happen, among them the commissioning of a portrait of The Empress, twice in succession winner in the Fat Pigs Class at the Shropshire Agricultural Show. What better choice of artist, in Lord Emsworth's opinion, than Landseer, the renowned painter of The Stag at Bay may have been dead for decades, but that doesn't prevent Galahad Threepwood from introducing him to the castle, or rather introducing Bill Lister, Gally's godson, so desperately in love with Prudence that he's determined to enter Blandings in yet another imposture. Add a gaggle of fearsome aunts, uncles and millionaires, mix in Freddie Threepwood, Beach the Butler and the gardener McAllister, and the moon is full indeed. Classic Wodehouse.
