Blandings and Beyond: PG Wodehouse's England

The large-format map charts locations both fictional and real: Blandings Castle, Brinkley Court, the Drones Club, Wodehouse''s childhood home in Guilford (''as normal as rice pudding''), prep school at Dulwich College, and the bank where he endured a brief, unhappy period working as ''the most inefficient clerk whose trouser seat ever polished a stool.'' In his works, PG Wodehouse avoided using real-life locations, yet close reading reveals clues. Making use of all available scholarship, and a lifetime absorbed by the world Wodehouse created, Blandings And Beyond is your passport to what Evelyn Waugh called ''Mr Wodehouse''s idyllic world.
