About this listen

Written when he was 25, Love Among the Chickens launched P.G. Wodehouse's career as a novelist and introduced the world to Ukridge, one of his most extraordinary inventions. This fascinating early book holds within it so many of the themes which Wodehouse was to make his own. This edition uses Wodehouse's 1920 revised edition of the 1906 original.

I loved this story so much, and Jonathan Cecil was brilliant at bringing the characters to life. Can’t fault it at all.

So so enjoyable

I have recently discovered PG Woodhouse, and what a pleasure . Just love the wit, lively characters, and the sheer laughter it evokes... Definitely on to the next one...

So amusing

A fairly straightforward plot compared with his later novels but the humour and farcical situations are already to the fore. Great fun!

Earliest Wodehouse

Very entertaining story, zips along, very funny. Chicken farms seem to be a recurring theme for Wodehouse, and this time the appalling Ukridge is the would-be chicken farmer, helped unwillingly by his many creditors. Alongside that the narrator falls in love, and struggles against his beloved's bad tempered father.

Superb! A romp!
