maedo 's review for:
The Code of the Woosters
by P.G. Wodehouse
This book, for me, was the equivalent not of a belly laugh (which I do in real life at the drop of a hat, lest you think I have no sense of humor) but a polite "that's funny." I can see how people find it funny. But, humor being subjective and alla that...
The world of Bertie Wooster strikes me as a modern equivalent of an Emma: bored, silly, wealthy people meddling in each other's lives and romances. But without the fullness of character and eloquence of wit that makes Jane Austen great. However: "you can't be a fascist dictator and design women's undergarments" did make me smile at the end of a long day of work. I do have some fondness for that.
