Indiscretions of Archie
by P. G. Wodehouse (Herbert Jenkins, 1921)
audiobook read by Frederick Davidson (Blackstone, 2011)
A novelised reworking of eleven short stories featuring the hapless but well-meaning Englishman Archie Moffam, barely tolerated resident of his American father-in-law’s hotel. Wodehouse’s delivery is gently piquant, the painting into of corners not so intricate or consequential as in later works.
