Jeeves 有一些离谱的想法,关于 Gussie Fink-Nottle 如何赢得 Madeline Bassett 小姐的芳心:猩红色紧身裤和假胡子。随后是“有史以来把文字写在纸上的最有趣的作家”(Hugh Laurie)对英国上流社会宴会厅和闺房的一次愉快嬉闹。

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • ……持续监视和滥用语言以达到邪恶目的。——如果你想要轻松的东西,那就非 P G Wodehouse 莫属:这位作者有许多好书可读,比如出色的《Right Ho, Jeeves》、《Service With a Smile》或《Galahad at Blandings》。读 Jerome K Jerome 的《Three Men in a Boat》或 George 和 Weedon Grossmith 的《Diary of a Nobody》也错不了。——如果你想要一些……

    …persistent surveillance and abuse of language for nefarious ends. - If you want something light, then go no further than P G Wodehouse: there are many fine books to read by this author, such as the excellent Right Ho, Jeeves, Service With a Smile, or Galahad at Blandings. You couldn't go very wrong with Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K Jerome, or Diary of a Nobody by George and Weedon Grossmith. - If you want something that…

  • 今年我在 Librivox 上听了《Right Ho, Jeeves!》(https://librivox.org/right-ho-jeeves-by-p-g-wodehouse/),我附议他的推荐。某种程度上是一部完美的小说。

    I listened to _Right Ho, Jeeves!_ this year from Librivox (https://librivox.org/right-ho-jeeves-by-p-g-wodehouse/) and I'd second his recommendation for it. Sort of a perfect novel.

  • ……推荐:这似乎是一篇不错的文章,精选的引文能让人了解喜欢 Wodehouse 的读者喜欢什么:https://honoriaplum.com/2017/01/08/p-g-wodehouse-reading-gui...(具体推荐:《Right Ho, Jeeves》可以在线获取,Stephen Fry 在某处提到其中有一幕“常被描述为语言中最持续好笑的单篇作品”;John Le Carré 也……

    …recommendations: this seems a nice post, with choice quotes that give an idea of what readers who like Wodehouse like: https://honoriaplum.com/2017/01/08/p-g-wodehouse-reading-gui... (For a specific recommendation: "Right Ho, Jeeves" is available online, and Stephen Fry mentions somewhere that one of the scenes in it "has often been described as the single funniest piece of sustained writing in the language"; John Le Carré was also…

  • ……提到过,质量参差不齐,但有些是真正的瑰宝。我个人最喜欢的是 Mark Nelson 朗读的 Jeeves 故事:https://librivox.org/my-man-jeeves-by-p-g-wodehouse/ https://librivox.org/right-ho-jeeves-by-p-g-wodehouse/ 另外,整个 LibriVox 合集都上传到了 Internet Archive(很容易找到:它是音频标签下的热门链接之一)。IA 的界面在某些方面比 librivox.org 更好……

    …mentioned, the quality varies, but some are real gems. My personal favorites are the Jeeves stories narrated by Mark Nelson: https://librivox.org/my-man-jeeves-by-p-g-wodehouse/ https://librivox.org/right-ho-jeeves-by-p-g-wodehouse/ Also, the whole LibriVox collection is uploaded to the Internet Archive (easy to find: it’s one of the top links under the audio tab). IA’s interface is nicer in certain ways than librivox.org…

  • …… scandalous,但我非常享受。科幻之外:P.G. Wodehouse 的 Jeeves and Wooster 小说,以及我读过的他的其他书,都既搞笑又精彩;我建议从《Right Ho, Jeeves》开始。

    …scandalous, but I thoroughly enjoyed them. Outside science fiction: P.G. Wodehouse's Jeeves and Wooster novels, as well as what of his other books I've read, are hilarious and brilliant; I would suggest "Right Ho, Jeeves" as a starting point.

  • 找了半天,我找到了一个修改的例子。https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/jeeves-and-wooster-sto... 提到:“在 1934 年的小说《Right Ho, Jeeves》中,企鹅出版社新近再版时,一个用来描述‘老派吟游诗人’的种族词汇被删除了。”https://archive.org/details/p-g-wodehouse_right-ho-jeeves/pa... 显示那是 n 词——某种……

    It took a bit of hunting, but I found an example of one of the changes. https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/jeeves-and-wooster-sto... mentions: "In the 1934 novel Right Ho, Jeeves, newly reissued by Penguin, a racial term used to describe a “minstrel of the old school” has been removed." https://archive.org/details/p-g-wodehouse_right-ho-jeeves/pa... shows it's the n-word - something…
