WodehouseSmiles!

So..

Unable to sleep in anticipation at 2 am on Aug16th2009 ,I grab my always faithful..Wodehouse!

I am so thankful to this gentleman for writing such amazingly succulent books..books that have never failed to drive the gloom away and touched me with more than a smile!
Nothing bad ever happens in a Wodehouse. Almost like Bollywood..melodrama , overacting,beautiful in distress damsels and dashing heroes (and dragons ;) et al!

I have read them while I am traveling, sleeping,feeling lazy or need a spirit burst! I have reveled in them, rubbed away my tears and wiped my nose..at the end of it all,I burst out laughing or at least managed a Cheshire grin!
While at school, ma used to get me these treasures of joy. Whenever I would be shaken by Mister Macleans sea stories or Fedrick Darling's spies I would run to the safe cocoon of Jeeves world. It still feels the same..
I bought a few at Chennai airport's Higginbotham's and I was so involved and intrigued by Lord Biskerton that I nearly missed my flight to Bangalore! That is what is the timeless genius of Wodehouse, they transport you to another era. And pray,who would want to return! ;)

His seamless and effortless wit and genuine affection for the fallacies of humankind totally appeal to me!
Like Stephen Fry said..You don't analyze such sunlit perfection,you just bask in its glory!

Till next time.. Jeeves calling! :P
