Blandings Castle

â€œI envy those whoâ€™ve never read [Wodehouse] beforeâ€”the prospect of reams of unread Wodehouse stretching out in front of you is . . . something which is enticing to contemplate.â€ â€”Tony Blair

Welcome to Blandings Castle, home of the well-intentioned but often distracted Lord Emsworthâ€”and there are quite a few distractions at this stately country house. Head gardener Angus McAllister has resigned before the Shrewsbury Agricultural Show, when Emsworth needs him most; Lady Constance, Emsworthâ€™s officious sister, has caged her daughter in the castle to keep her away from the persistent Beefy Bingham; and the Blandings pigman, Wellbeloved, has been sent to prison for drunken and disorderly conduct just days before Emsworthâ€™s adored sow can win first prize at the 87th Annual Shropshire Show. Through P.G. Wodehouseâ€™s expert wit, we witness Lord Emsworth trying to solve these predicaments and others, with the unexpected help (and hindrance) of a lively array of characters.
