P. G. Wodehouse - «The World of Blandings»

О книге

This is a Blandings Omnibus. In this wonderfully fat omnibus, which seems to span the dimensions of the Empress of Blandings herself (the fattest pig in Shropshire and surely all England), the whole world of Blandings Castle is spread out for our delectation: the engagingly dotty Lord Emsworth and his enterprising brother Galahad, his terrifying sister Lady Constance, Beach the butler (his voice "like tawny port made audible"), James Wellbeloved, the gifted but not always sober pigman, and Lord Emsworth"s secretary the Efficient Baxter, with gleaming spectacles, whose attempts to bring order to the Castle always end in disarray. Lurking in the wings is Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe of Matchingham Hall, the neighbour with designs on the Prize which must surely belong to the Empress. As Evelyn Waugh wrote, "The gardens of Blandings Castle are that original garden from which we are all exiled". This omnibus contains "Something Fresh", "Summer Lightning" and three short stories. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The World of Blandings (P. G. Wodehouse)
