My favorite Author(s) - Wodehouse PG

Currently, Sir PG wodehouse holds the first position in my favorite author list. I really wonder how I missed his books so far, despite of being a slithering book worm for a long time. I did try his book once (couldn't recollect which one) but it was not appealing to my taste so I discarded that half way. I recollect my one of my friend's comments about "Shushi". Man, that is an acquired taste". I guess I have acquired that taste (not "Shushi") at last.

I have read very few books of Wodehouse so far. My favorite one is "Crime at Blandings", a short story that happens in the Blandings castle where Lord Emsworth and co starts "practicing" air gun with his ex-secretary. Oh man !! that’s called fun !!

So far, I have encountered Jeeves (our know it all), Bertie and the Drone folks, Lord Emsworth, his sister and ppl from Blandings. I like Jeeves, quite brilliant guy who has a solution for everything and the talent to reach new heights but still prefer to be "the gentleman’s personal gentleman" ; The Valet. I like Clarence (Lord Emsworth) too; he showed me the real meaning of "Ignorance is a bliss".

I would like to write more after I read more of his ...
