Wodehouse, P.G. -- Piccadily Jim

I did not read this book recently. It was read a few years ago, circa 2000. But you know how it is, some books just remain in memory forever.

Piccadily Jim is one of those books. Funny, hilarious, ridiculous, rumbunctious, this book is a must read. Not much needs to be said about the thin veiled plots and the repetition of cliches just to tick you off.

P.G. Wodehouse is definitely among the most skilled authors that ever wrote in English. He had a way to take words and meddle them in and out of context in a way that leaves your stomach aching and your lungs thirsting for air.

This one, is no doubt, 5/5
