The Heart of a Goof by Pg Wodehouse
In nine of Wodehouse's ripest stories from the 1920s, the characters are united by their worship of golf.
Nothing will ever dim the brilliance of Wodehouse's world or flatten his ever-sprightly and always entertaining prose -- John Mortimer * The Sunday Times *
What can one say about Wodehouse? He exhausts superlativesI am not alone in believing he has come closer than any writer of English to approaching Shakespeare's complete mastery and transcendency of language. * Stephen Fry *
Mr Wodehouse's idyllic world can never stale. He will continue to release future generations from captivity that may be more irksome than our own. He has made a world for us to live in and delight in * Evelyn Waugh *
