Description: 241 pp, Traduccion de Manuel Bosch Barrett. SOBRE EL AUTOR::: KBE (Guildford, 15 de octubre de 1881 - Southampton (Nueva York), 14 de febrero de 1975) fue un escritor humorístico británico que gozó de un extraordinario éxito en vida y continúa siendo leído 30 años después de su muerte.Fue hijo de Eleanor Wodehouse (nacida Deane) y de, Henry Ernest Wodehouse (1845-1929), que fue juez británico en Hong Kong. Los Wodehouse llevaban asentados en Norfolk durante muchos siglos. Su bisabuelo el Reverendo Philip Wodehouse, fue el segundo hijo de Sir Armine Wodehouse, 5º Baronet (de Wilberhall), hijo póstumo de John Wodehouse, 1º Baron Wodehouse, ancestro de los Condes de Kimberley. Su padrino fue Pelham von Donop, por el que se le puso su nombre.Vivió hasta los cuatro años en Hong Kong, donde su padre era juez del gobierno británico. De regreso a Londres y habiendo cursado estudios en el Dulwich College, su primer artículo retribuido fue "Aspects of Game Captaincy". Pese a que su padre no aprobaba sus inclinaciones literarias, continuó su carrera en 1903 publicando una serie de historias escolares que fueron recogidas en El Capitán, una revista para chicos, donde aparece ya por primera vez Psmith, uno de sus personajes más importantes. Entre 1903 y 1909 escribió la columna humorística "By the Way" del London Globe. En 1909 casó con Ethel Newton, una viuda que había conocido en Nueva York dos meses antes y cuya hija, Leonora, fue adoptada por él. Ya por entonces sus primeras novelas A Prefect's Uncle (1903) y Mike (1909) habían tenido cierto éxito. Desde 1909 Wodehouse vivió entre París y Estados Unidos; su reputación como novelista de humor quedó asentada con su obra Psmith in the City (1910), primera de una serie de novelas con este personaje como protagonista. Mantuvo su enorme popularidad a través de unas 100 novelas protagonizadas por sus curiosos y muy británicos personajes (Psmith, lord Emsworth, Wooster, Jeeves, Mulliner, Ukridge, el socio decano.), casi siempre jovencitos ociosos desorientados por las absurdas y cómicas situaciones en que su maquiavélico autor les envuelve. En 1919 empieza la que será su serie de novelas y relatos más famosa, con My Man Jeeves; este personaje, un ayuda de cámara listísimo que saca siempre de aprietos a su señor, había aparecido ya, al igual que su joven y atolondrado amo, Bertie Wooster, en un relato corto dentro de la recopilación titulada The Man with Two Left Feet ("El hombre con dos pies izquierdos") de 1917. De toda la serie, se puede destacar Muy bien, Jeeves de (1930).Wodehouse fue asimismo autor junto a Cole Porter, Irving Berlin y George Gershwin de numerosas comedias musicales, entre las que se pueden destacar O, Kay (1926) y Rosalie (1928), que se representaron fundamentalmente en los Estados Unidos, país en el que llevó a cabo gran parte de su producción. Durante la II Guerra Mundial estuvo prisionero en Alemania, desde donde emitió relatos en programas radiofónicos que le ganaron la acusación de colaboracionista con los nazis, aunque posteriormente fue nombrado sir por la reina. Tras la guerra marchó a Estados Unidos y continuó su prolífica carrera, llegando a trabajar incluso en Hollywood. Entre sus novelas más importantes destacan: Amor entre pollos (1906), El hombre con dos pies izquierdos (1917), El inimitable Jeeves (1923), ¡Adelante, Jeeves! (1925), Jim de Piccadilly (1928), Habla Mr. Mulliner (1929), Dinero a espuertas (1931) y la serie que se inicia con El castillo de Blandings (1935), en la que se describe con fina ironía la Inglaterra rural, tradicional y aristocrática, inocente y optimista, que tanto gustaba al autor.Su mundo de desdeñosas y desaprobadoras tías, mayordomos severos aficionados a hacer de carabinas, tíos impacientes, chicas de aspecto deportivo, jóvenes atildados que se lanzan unos a otros bollos de pan en los comedores de los clubs, pero se ruborizan y tartamudean en presencia de personas del sexo opuesto., pueden ser presentados como prueba de hallarnos
