A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

If Mike had been in time for breakfast that fatal Easter morning he might have gathered from the expression on his father's face, as Mr. Jackson opened the envelope containing his school report and read the contents, that the document in question was not exactly a paean of praise from beginning to end. But he was late, as usual. Mike always was late for breakfast in the holidays. When he came down on this particular morning, the meal was nearly over. Mr. Jackson had disappeared, taking his correspondence with him; Mrs. Jackson had gone into the kitchen, and when Mike appeared the thing had resolved itself into a mere vulgar brawl between Phyllis and Ella for the jam, while Marjory, recently affecting a grown-up air, looked on in a detached sort of way, as if these juvenile gambols distressed her.

Revue de presse :

"Wodehouse’s idyllic world can never stale. He will continue to release future generations from captivity that may be more irksome than our own. He has made a world for us to live in and delight in." (Evelyn Waugh)

"The Everyman edition promises to be a splendid celebration of the divine Plum" (The Independent)

"It's dangerous to use the word genius to describe a writer, but I'll risk it with him" (John Humphrys)

"The handsome bindings are only the cherry on top of what is already a cake without compare" (Evening Standard)

"The incomparable and timeless genius - perfect for readers of all ages, shapes and sizes!" (Kate Mosse)
