Originally published in 1946, Joy in the Morning is another breezy Jeeves and Wooster story. There are near-miss engagements, scheming, unlucky coincidences, shouting from elderly relatives, one burned down house, a hockey stick in the night, and lots and lots of witty language.

Wodehouse just has an unparalleled way with words. Phrases like "out-Fred the nimblest Astaire" stick in the mind.

Delightful. PG Wodehouse uses the best expressions. Jonathan Cecil is (possibly) my favorite Jeeves narrator.
