While the juxtaposition of Lovecraftian dread and Wodehousian insouciance makes for some very funny situations and dialogues, it can grow to be a bit repetitive. Luckily, Scream for Jeeves is just about the right length; long enough to get as much out of the conceit without overplaying it. It's made up of three short stories:

"Rats, Cats, and Bertie Wooster" - Bertie visits his friend "Tubby" Norrys at the newly rebuilt priory that seems to have some sort of rodent problem.

"Something show more Foetid" - Bertie's jaunt in New York lands him in the company of a strange fiction writer and his even stranger Spanish doctor friend.

"The Rummy Case of Young Charly" - Art Jenkin, Erich Zann, and Charly Ward all get involved in this strange affair. As Bertie would say, "Life is a horrible thingummy." show less

Very interesting little book, I'm going to get onto Google Earth and find all the places.
