"My Man Jeeves" by P. G. (Pelham Grenville) Wodehouse is a set of funny stories from the time after World War I, that follows Bertie Wooster, a nice but not-so-smart guy, and his really smart valet, Jeeves. Jeeves is always fixing the messes Bertie gets into. The stories are full of clever talk, make fun of society, and have funny mix-ups that show off Wodehouse's special way of writing. The first story shows how much Bertie depends on Jeeves's smarts, telling funny stories about Bertie's mistakes, like picking the wrong clothes and losing bets. We also meet Bruce Corcoran, an artist with family problems, and his girl, Muriel Singer. Bertie's funny stories and Jeeves's calm, smart answers show how special their friendship is, with Bertie always asking Jeeves for help when things go wrong, which shows the charm and wit of Wodehouse's famous people.
