Description

The Gold Bat is a humorous tale of two mischievous boys and their wild adventure. When O'Hara and Moriarty tar and feather a local MP's statue, they inadvertently leave behind a small gold bat, setting off a chain of events to retrieve it. However, the true focus of the novel is a vivid portrayal of school life, capturing the unique voice and wit of its author. Wodehouse's keen ear for the way children talk brings to life the characters and situations in this English public school setting, just before the outbreak of World War 1. With its lighthearted tone and engaging storyline, The Gold Bat is a charming read that will appeal to fans of humorous fiction. This edition features 170 pages of Wodehouse's witty prose, bound in hardcover for a durable and long-lasting read.
