Özet

In Pigs Have Wings, affably potty Lord Emsworth is embroiled in a fierce pig-rearing battle with his obese neighbour, Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe. Tossed in for good measure: romantic entanglements, some dubious detective work and a fearful dieting product called 'Slimmo'.Blandings is also never complete without the resourcefulness of canny Gally Threepwood, the staunchness of 'man mountain' butler Beach and the stentorian tones of Lady Constance ringing around its batty corridors (there's even an impostor or two). Naturally a pig-napping is afoot, but who will have the last oink? Pigs Have Wings is great fun and a joyous listen for all.
Read by everyone's favourite Wodehouse reader, highly-acclaimed British actor Martin Jarvis.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"No one can do the milky, imperious voice of a marriage-brokering aunt like Martin Jarvis. What a good egg he is!"
"Wodehouse brightens up the dullest day and lightens the heaviest heart."

A delightful farce beautifully narrated. The Blandings novel’s may be Wodehouse’s supreme achievement. Pigs Have Wings may not be the very best plot wise, but it’s still highly entertaining.

Martin Jarvis gets the register just right

This is one of the best of P.G. Wodehouse's Blandings Castle books, to my mind. The various plotlines are all extremely funny in their own way, with the usual thwarted romances, long-lost lovers, hidden identities and an endearingly beery pig-man. Even Lord Emsworth begins to feel the flutter of romance in his heart, for a short while at least! Oh, and mustn't forget the pig-stealing!

The reading by Martin Jarvis is excellent as usual; he can even manage an audible double-take. Not easy to do, that! Most definitely he is THE Wodehouse reader!

A thoroughly enjoyable book with never a dull moment. Highly recommended.

Super!

I have listened to this time and again. It is not one of my favourites but brilliant all the same.

PG Wodehouse has a great gift of observing peoples characteristics.

I will work my way through the others in time.

Great

With the classical Blandins Castle formula of romantic entanglement including Sir Gallahad supporting all lovers, Lady Constance opposing romance, and Lord Emsworth obsessed by his pig, not forgetting the inclusion of the imposter. This is PG Woodhouse at its best. I really recommend it.

It is not clear from the description that this is sn abridged version. The book is excellent, one of my favourite Wodehouse stories, but it was frustrating to realise that it wasn't the entire text. Jarvis' narration is good, though a couple of the characters's voices are a bit too similar.
