Pure pleasure -- The Times
The ultimate in comfort reading -- Marian Keyes
A grown-up book - but not that grown-up -- Katy Guest
I am a huge fan -- Jennifer Saunders
If we're talking about culture that makes people happy, we have to start with the works of P.G. Wodehouse -- BBC Culture
To have one of his books in your hand is to possess by way of a pill that can relieve anxiety, rageiness, or an afternoon-long tendency towards the sour. Paper has rarely been put to better use than printing Wodehouse.
Not only the funniest English novelist who ever wrote but one of our finest stylists. His world is perfect, his writing is perfect. What more is there to be said?
P. G. Wodehouse is the gold standard of English wit.
An incomparable and timeless genius.
P. G. Wodehouse should be prescribed to treat depression. Cheaper, more effective than valium and far, far more addictive.
P.G. Wodehouse remains the greatest chronicler of a certain kind of Englishness, that no one else has ever captured quite so sharply or with quite so much wit and affection.
Wodehouse is a comic master.
For as long as I'm immersed in a P. G. Wodehouse book, it's possible to keep the real world at bay and live in a far, far nicer, funnier one where happy endings are the order of the day.
I'm a huge fan. Wodehouse writes proper jokes.
To dive into a Wodehouse novel is to swim in some of the most elegantly turned phrases in the English language.
