‘You don’t analyse such sunlit perfection: you just bask in its warmth and splendour’ Stephen Fry

'It beats me why a man of his genius is satisfied to hang around pressing my clothes and what not,' says Bertie. 'If I had Jeeves's brain I should have a stab at being Prime Minister or something.'

Luckily for us, Bertie Wooster manages to retain Jeeves's services through all the vicissitudes of purple socks and policeman's helmets, and here, gathered together for the first time, is an omnibus of Jeeves novels and stories comprising three of the funniest books ever written: Thank You, Jeeves, The Code of the Woosters and The Inimitable Jeeves.

Praise for The Jeeves Omnibus - Vol 1

The gold standard of English wit … There is not, and never will be, anything to touch him

Christopher Hitchens

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

John Humphrys

Mr 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
