P.G. Wodehouse’s irrepressible double-act Jeeves and Wooster first appeared on the page in 1915, featuring in more than 35 short stories and eleven novels. Now, fifty years after his death, they are brought to life afresh in JEEVES AGAIN: a new collection of short stories inspired by the iconic duo.

With new contributions from a host of literary and comedic greats, JEEVES AGAIN is an essential addition to any fan’s bookcase – and, for a new generation of readers, the perfect entry-point to the world of Wodehouse. Each story offers a delightful and unique spin on the incomparable Bertie Wooster and his gentleman’s gentleman.

The collection features original stories from Frank Skinner, Roddy Doyle, Alan Titchmarsh, Dominic Sandbrook, Deborah Frances-White, Andrew Hunter Murray, Scarlett Curtis, Jasper Fforde, John Finnemore, Ian Moore, William Rayfet Hunter and Fergus Craig.

JEEVES AGAIN is a joyful celebration of Wodehouse as a much-beloved British literary icon – as well as a timely and entertaining reminder of the lasting impact of his characters on a whole new generation of writers and comics.
