Another highly amusing installment in the Jeeves series. Perhaps the most charming and hilarious one yet. Bertram Wooster finds himself in trouble once again, with the familiar ingredients: an aunt, a domineering uncle, an annoying boy scout, and friends who usually lead him from the frying pan into the fire.
As always, the aristocracy is satirized for its petty problems blown out of proportion to global dimensions. Ironically, Bertie's ex-fiancée, Florence, a writer, attempts to mold her fiancés with serious literature. Bertie is relieved to have escaped her clutches, but her current fiancé, Stilton, takes action after digesting the writings of Karl Marx and decides to become a police officer. He refuses to live off his uncle's purse and secure a job in parliament through nepotism. He wants to earn his bread honestly and honorably. This, of course, was not the intended plan, as status and luxury prevail over the ideal!
Bertie's chaotic world is on the verge of collapsing when Florence declares that she will marry him in September. What to do, what to do...
Fortunately, there is Jeeves, who sets everything right once again.
