P. G. Wodehouse 
Mike and Psmith (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition) [EPUB ebook] 

поддержка

Mike Jackson, cricket prodigy and easygoing student, is sent away from his beloved Wrykyn school to Sedleigh, a far smaller school, after a poor performance report card. Mike’s spirits are at an all-time low, until he meets Rupert Psmith, an eccentric, monocle-wearing fellow newcomer whose verbal dexterity and force of personality quickly distinguish him. The P in his surname is silent (‘as in pshrimp, ‘ in his own words) and was added by himself, in order to distinguish him from other Smiths. Together, Mike and Psmith navigate the challenges of their new school with humor and cleverness. While Mike longs to get back to his cricketing days, Psmith, with his unique outlook on life, has other ideas-taking Sedleigh by storm, one uproarious misadventure at a time. In this classic Wodehouse tale, readers are treated to a delightful mix of schoolboy camaraderie, sharp humor, and the larger-than-life charm of Psmith, one of Wodehouse’s best-loved characters. Mike and Psmith is a sparkling early work from one of the greatest humorists of the twentieth century, filled with the wit, warmth, and wonderfully absurd characters that Wodehouse is known for. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.
