Reviews

“There are several great Wodehouse narrators—Martin Jarvis and Edward Duke, for example—who can sound wry and silly and imperious and pompous as the characters biff on and off the stage. Jonathan Cecil is one of them. He has a twinkle in his voice as the characters blunder about.”

(AudioFile)

“Jonathan Cecil, equally adept at the silly and the pompous, matches Alexander Spencer and Martin Jarvis as a great Wodehouse interpreter.”

(Library Journal)

“P. G. Wodehouse is still the funniest writer ever to have put words on paper.”

(Hugh Laurie, praise for the author)

“Wodehouse is the greatest comic writer ever.”

(Douglas Adams, praise for the author)
