Psmith in the City (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition)

by P. G. Wodehouse

Overview

Psmith in the City showcases P. G. Wodehouse at his finest. In this sharp, witty novel we follow the irrepressible Psmith-an unconventional and effortlessly charming figure-and his steadfast friend Mike Jackson as they navigate the rigid confines of the New Asiatic Bank. Bound by the expectations of a corporate world that prizes order over creativity, Psmith refuses to conform. His irreverence for mundane office life and flair for bending the rules transform the humdrum routines of banking into a series of tellingly absurd encounters. For both seasoned Wodehouse fans and newcomers alike, Psmith in the City offers a clever satire of office life and a delightful foray into the antics of one of literature's most eccentric and lovable heroes. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.
