"The Inimitable Jeeves" gathers a group of loosely related stories originally published in the "smart" magazines of the 1920s like "The Strand" and "Cosmopolitan." These stories find wealthy airhead Bertie Wooster and his save-the-day butler Jeeves at their comic best. Many of the stories involve Bertie's equally distracted pal Bingo Little, who doubles Jeeves' workload by getting in and out of countless momentary love affairs and scheming to get his uncle to increase his allowance. The cast expands with witty appearances by Bertie's nettlesome cousins, Claude and Eustace; a duplicitous bookmaker named Steggles; and of course Bertie's beloved battleaxe Aunt Agatha, who's determined that Bertie must marry and she would prefer to pick the bride, thank you. Martin Jarvis expertly impersonates these whimsical characters, making "The Inimitable Jeeves" one of the funniest additions to Wodehouse's canon of audio books.
