Uncle Fred in the Springtime

Uncle Fred in the Springtime

by P.G. Wodehouse (Doubleday, Doran, 1939)

audiobook read by Stephen Fry (Audible, 2021) [as part of “The Blandings Collection”]

Perhaps the most twisted and entwined plot that Wodehouse ever laid down. If anything, the Gordian Knot is perhaps too great, for the sheer effort of describing it leaves Wodehouse a bit short of his usual sparkle, the pitfalls not so precarious.
