Perihal e-buku ini

"Indiscretions of Archie" is a novel by P. G. Wodehouse, first published in the United Kingdom on 14 February 1921. The book was adapted from a series of short stories, originally serialised in the Strand in the United Kingdom between March 1920 and February 1921, and, all except one, in Cosmopolitan in the United States between May 1920 and February 1921. The stories were rewritten and reorganised to create a more flowing novel form. (Excerpt from Wikipedia)

Perihal pengarang

Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, born on October 15, 1881, in Guildford, England, is celebrated as one of the most prolific and beloved humorists of the 20th century. Known for his sharp wit, intricate plots, and unforgettable characters, Wodehouse's literary career spanned over 70 years, producing more than 90 books, 40 plays, and 200 short stories. His most iconic creations include the bumbling aristocrat Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet, Jeeves, whose escapades have delighted readers for generations.Wodehouse's writing is characterized by its light-hearted, farcical style, and his ability to craft a comedic universe that offers an escape from the mundane. His works have influenced a wide array of contemporary writers, including Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, and Evelyn Waugh, who admired his mastery of language and humor.Despite his literary acclaim, Wodehouse's life was not without controversy. During World War II, he was interned by the Germans and later made a series of radio broadcasts from Berlin, which led to accusations of collaboration and treason in Britain. Although he was eventually exonerated, the incident cast a shadow over his reputation for many years.Wodehouse's legacy endures, not only through his extensive body of work but also through adaptations in film, television, and theatre. His revolutionary approach to comedic writing, characterized by its timeless charm and linguistic playfulness, continues to resonate with modern audiences, ensuring his place as a cornerstone of English literature.
