This was a fun one, with lots of great wordplay, and hilarious characters. I lost track of how many times I stopped to read sections out loud to my husband. Wodehouse's talent for elaborate exaggeration is one of the things I love most about his writing. Instead of simply stating that George Finch's future mother-in-law was giving him dirty looks at the dinner table, Wodehouse put it this way: It was the kind of look which Sisera might have surprised in the eye of Jael the wife of Heber, had he chanced to catch it immediately before she began operations with the spike. The book is loaded with gems. I think it was originally a musical, and it was fun to imagine the characters bursting into song at different parts. Not quite as funny as Jeeves and Wooster or Lord Emsworth, but Wodehouse fans won't be sorry they picked it up. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Would-be painter, George Finch, with lots of money and no talent, falls for lovely Molly Waddington, who falls for him. Unfortunately, Molly's snobbish stepmother, Mrs. Sigsbee H. Waddington, New York society Queen, has grander ideas for Molly, not the least because George comes from Idaho, which in every sense is beyond the pale. The story of George's struggle to win his girl, with the willing help of Hamilton Beamish, author of self-improvement pamphlets, and the unwitting assistance of a poetic policeman, Molly's henpecked father, and New York's premier female pickpocket.
