P. G. Wodehouse, The Love that Purifies. Short story audiobook read by Nick Martin

Ойын-сауық

Jeeves is away on his annual leave and Bertram is struggling to help his much loved Aunt Dahlia out of a tricky fix. First published in 1929 in the Strand Magazine and later in the Cosmopolitan. Again, a glimpse into the intriguing and delightful enterprise that my brother Richard runs tucked away in the heart of Cotswold England. I am certain that if you have a feeling for tradition and history, or a desire for individuality and quality, it will be of interest to you.
All will be revealed at the start of the reading with a few other pictures throughout. If you want a little more than a glimpse or to actually have a piece of the action, there is a slide at the end with all the details.

    PGW's humour is exquisite and the reader's delivery superb. I'm hooked. The fiction is at least partly grounded in reality. One wonders how a person with a too notch education can be so vapid and useless. Bertie would be lost without Jeeves. Bertie's family would have done well by requiring that he work as a condition of his allowance. Aunt Agatha and Jeeves together could manage him if she could accept that Jeeves exercises good judgment despite his lower social standing. Bertie might actually grow up under those circumstances.

    Apart from a few mispronunciations, which are unimportant in the great scheme of things, these are extremely well read. I prefer Nick Martin's work to all other interpretations. Great clarity. The characterisations are vivid and timing perfect. Compelling listening. They have brought me great joy.

    Many thanks for your efforts in these readings. I have only discovered Wodehouse in the last few months (at age 63) thanks to the likes of Douglas Adams, Stephen Fry and Christopher Hitchens all ganging up on me to check the bloke out. So I invested an Audible credit on Fry’s Jeeves collection, then the Blandings collection, and now I am seeking out more and more stories, wherever I can find them. PS: Scourge rhymes with surge. Sorry to nitpick.

    Nobody does voiceover direction on these damned stories, with the result that there is always mangling of the words. Shortly after 47:00 we get "lissome" pronounced as "lie-some". I ask you. Where did Nick Martin receive his educations, and what was he doing during the English language lessons? Enough! I will find Plum read by another voice.
