Beschreibung

'Joy in the Morning' is another novel from the wonderful series of books about Bertram Wooster and Jeeves by English humorist P.G. Wodehouse. It was first published in 1946. The novel was concluded amid the horrors of wartime Germany, and was something of a miracle, "The supreme Jeeves novel of all time."
Bertie is a young gentleman of inherited means and no present occupation. He is a good-humored and well-meant chap, however, is clearly not the smartest tool in the shed. Bertie seems to have a talent for getting himself into trouble but that is where Jeeves, his loyal, educated and painfully clever butler comes to his rescue. Jeeves is irreplaceable when it comes to saving Bertie from whatever creative, complicated, and incredibly funny situations Wodehouse puts his characters through.

Portrait

Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, KBE, was a comic author who experienced huge success during a career of more than seventy years and continues to be broadly read over 40 years after his death. He was an English writer and one of the most comprehensively read humorists of the 20th century. Born in Guildford on 15 October 1881, the son of a British Magistrate established in Hong Kong, Wodehouse spent happy teenage years at Dulwich College. Later he worked for the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank in London for two years. He wrote part-time while working in the bank, usually proving successful enough to take it up as a full-time profession. He was a journalist with The Globe (an inactive English newspaper) for several years before usually going to Hollywood, where he earned a huge amount as a screenwriter. He was a creative author, writing 96 books in a career scaling from 1902-1975. His works consist of novels, collections of short stories, and a musical comedy. He is best well-known as the creator of Jeeves. He died on 14 February 1975 in New York, United States.
