Book Summary:
This is the 8th book in the beloved Blandings Castle series, a lighthearted and farcical tale set in the idyllic English countryside.
At the center of the chaos is Lord Emsworth, a dreamy aristocrat more obsessed with his prize pig—the Empress of Blandings—than with the absurd dramas unraveling around him.
In this installment:
-
Lord Emsworth’s neighbor and rival, Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe, enters a new pig (the Queen of Matchingham) into a local competition.
-
Emsworth is determined the Empress must win, so his loyal (and often scheming) ally Galahad Threepwood devises a plan to ensure her victory.
-
Add in a string of romantic entanglements, pig thefts, identity mix-ups, and witty misunderstandings, and you get a wonderfully tangled comedy of manners.
As always, Wodehouse's writing is filled with playful prose, eccentric characters, and deliciously silly plot twists.
