<p>''Wodehouse said letters make "a wonderful oblique form for an autobiography," and Sophie Ratcliffe''s expertly edited collection amply proves the point.''<br><i>Spectator</i></p><br><p>One of the funniest and most admired writers of the twentieth century, P. G. Wodehouse always shied away from the idea of a biography. A quiet, retiring man, he expressed himself through the written word. His letters - collected here - provide an illuminating biographical accompaniment to legendary comic creations such as Jeeves, Wooster, Psmith and the Empress of Blandings. </p><p>This is a book every lover of Wodehouse will want to possess.</p><p>''The letters, gossipy in the kindliest, amused/bemused manner, bear true witness to the wide-ranging influences on Wodehouse''s'' best-known novels and best-loved characters.''<br><i>The Times</i></p>
