Although Wodehouse’s wartime broadcasts were the most significant event of his life and certainly shouldn’t be overlooked, I would have liked more about the times in which he lived. Written by a friend of the family, the book narrates the events of Plum’s life and analyzes his books, but gives no sense of, say, the New York theatre scene of the 1920s.

Wish I had had this book when I was in high school. A great and thought provoking overview of how we came to where we are today. Want to get a copy of the physical book too, for reference and pictures.

Decent but cliched noir

I'm a little baffled by all the acclaim for this author. If you enjoy baroquely gruesome murders, a standard tortured alcoholic detective, and a psychopathic serial killer whose motivation is, well, that he's a psychopath, then this is catnip for you. The writing is decent (or the translation is) and I enjoyed the Australian setting, but I don't feel there is anything really new here.
