Description

Uncle Dynamite by P.G. Wodehouse is a masterful tale of intrigue and deception. At its centre is Frederick Altamount Cornwallis, Fifth Earl of Ickenham, better known as Uncle Fred, whose sunny nature belies the complexity of the plot that unfolds. A story of blackmail, impersonation, knock-out drops, theft, arrests, and potential jewel-smuggling ensues, involving sundered lovers, explorers, broke publishers, and irascible aristocrats. Wodehouse's signature touch is on full display as he expertly weaves together a narrative that is both complicated and well-controlled. With its brilliant dialogue and word-perfect storytelling, Uncle Dynamite is a worthwhile read for fans of clever plotting and witty banter.
