Something Fresh

(Blandings Castle)




A brand new look for Wodehouse in Penguin, alongside the 120th anniversary publication of his very first novel, The Pothunters

'Without at least one impostor on the premises, Blandings Castle is never itself'
Welcome to the world of the delightfully dotty Lord Emsworth, his bone-headed younger son and his long-suffering secretary.

Having returned home with a valuable Egyptian amulet, Lord Emsworth finds his home contains not one but two imposters intent on taking it off his hands. But with no real sense of how the amulet came to be in his pocket in the first place, things get a lot more complicated very quickly...
