Wodehouse the plot centers around an english aristocrat named Bertie Wooster. His initial dilemna at the beginning of his adventure is about whether or not to retrieve "a cow creamer and (a) small, brown, leather covered notebook." Wooster's setting is a high-class society in England. The characters in "The Code of the Woosters" are symbols of a political nation. These people: Bertie Wooster, Aunt Dahlia, Pop Bassett, and others are the catalysts of several mundane controversies. They all have knick-names, but various individuals give monikers to one-another, such as: "The Dangerous Vice", "His Rotundity". Much like the pomposity of their time and place many of these titles are, in retrospect, ill-considered. Bertie Wooster's conflicts remind one of a college fraternity get together in which one poorly concieved joke or remark causes the motivation of the meeting to become itself ill-natured. In the case of the 'Woosters', as Bertie connives to steal a cow creamer from an ex-allum, other people become a part of Bertie's world, and other somber convictions turn into plots to commit college dorm-like pranks. "'A ruse"', replies Bertie Wooster to this deduction-"That's right-one of the ruses, and not the worst of them. Nice work Jeeves." This is about how vanity becomes the mark of a small society as a few individuals with offending sensabilities direct the sporadic angst within a clique of social club members. Surprises are wrought from Wodehouse's pen with dexterity. Conflicts make a left turn, a character plots on or becomes distressed, often sliding in morality. As regards the story, if you're like me, you admire people who are nice, whose humanity is there to stay on the page to read about-even as where plunged into further calamity. Wodehouse's skill as a writer makes these great swings. For these not-well-prioritised lives, a loss of a small object of value creates an empathy towards one or more of these provocateurs. An expulsion of emotion becomes a plea to a butler, an aunt, or other close conspirator. The twists transpire like sketches in a freestyle comedy show; pages of the book are turned, and the reading experience is quick and fraught with fun and humor. These are the most outrageous pranks; there is not even a small impression of a contriving hand by an over eager author. Read on with this story, the hero's foibles are explained, and you're hooked. P.G. Wodehouse in his novel "The Code of The Woosters" does an unbelievable job of bringing out the voices of the cast of characters in the dialouges through-out the work. Wodehouse's foresight is effete. There are alot of expressions used, particularly by Bertrand Wooster. Some are orthodox, but many are just thrown in, voiced by Bertie with a casual nonchalance as he talks to himself, or to Jeeves, his butler. Despite these high-flown expressions the reader knows exactly what the words mean. A saying is invoked, and we know Bertie's demeaner, what he is thinking-all just based on what we've read before. Bertie, or Bertrand, and his fellow peers have discussions which are casual, informal, and portray affectations and related curtness within a circle of comrades. As I discerned the words, I shook hands with a magistrate or a gentleman. A brisk cultivation transpired in my meetings with Bertie Wooster and Stephanie Bing('Stiffy'). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Wodehouse’s masterpiece *by N***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2023* This is the best of Wodehouse’s excellent body of work. Bertie Wooster’s narration and and quotations from literature and the Bible, as well as the plot twists are hilarious, and Jeeves, as always, provides satisfaction. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Silly Fun *by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2020* After reading Mantel’s lengthy The Mirror and The Light, the finale in her exploration of the life of Thomas Cromwell, I was feeling angry at Henry VIII and distraught due to the defeat and beheading of Cromwell by his political enemies who never forgave him for rising from poverty via his intelligence and persistence to become the king’s right hand man. I thought I would fast forward to the 20th century to read a lighthearted tale about the tribulations and almost trial of rich socialite Bertie and his right hand man Jeeves who I knew would save the day and not suffer the loss of his head. Thus this was a satisfying and soothing slightly humorous read in pandemic times when I am feeling overwrought by the sad fate of someone who came to a tragic end several centuries ago. Think I’ll move on to Ben Schott’s second novel written in the style of Wodehouse about Wooster and Jeeves. The first was great fun. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fi/products/8019120-the-code-of-the-woosters](https://www.desertcart.fi/products/8019120-the-code-of-the-woosters) --- *Product available on Desertcart Finland* *Store origin: FI* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
