Favorite quote: “What the thing wanted, of course, was edging into, and I found I had got the approach. I teed up with a certain access of confidence.
‘Have you ever thought about love, Sir Watkin?’
‘I beg your pardon?’
‘About love. Have you ever brooded on it to any extent?’
‘You have not come here to discuss love?’
‘Yes I have. That’s exactly it. I wonder if you have noticed a rather rummy thing bout it — viz. that it is everywhere. You can’t get away from it. Love, I mean. Wherever you go, there it is, buzzing along in every class of life. Quite remarkable. Take newts for instance.’
‘Are you quite well, Mr. Wooster?’”
From the publisher: Take Gussie Fink-Nottle, Madeline Bassett, old Pop Bassett, the unscrupulous Stiffy Byng, the Rev. H.P. (‘Stinker’) Pinker, an 18th-century cow-creamer, a small, brown, leather-covered notebook and mix with a dose of the aged aunt Dahlia and one has a dangerous brew which spells toil and trouble for Bertie and Jeeves. In a plot with more twists and turns than an English country lane, it takes all the ingenuity of Jeeves to extract his master from the soup again.
