Galahad at Blandings
P. G. WodehouseThe ninth novel in Wodehouse's popular Blandings saga
In a major mix-up at Blandings Castle, Galahad introduces yet another imposter to Lord Emsworth's residence and the Empress of Blandings gets sloshed in her sty. Formidable comic characters designed to interrupt Lord Emsworth's peace include his overbearing sister Lady Hermione Wedge who comes complete with her own meddling secretary, and Dame Daphne Winkworth who has her eye on becoming the next Countess. As ever, the stage is set for Gally to try and restore order to the ensuing chaos.
Review"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 delight and live in." —Evelyn Waugh
