Bob Blecha | 2 comments It appears as if Bertie Wooster's Aunt Agatha might have been lifted directly from SAKI's Reginald material. The problem with SAKI's young men about town is that they have too much of the Rodrick Spode (Later Lord Sidcup) character in them. SAKI's "THE UNBEARABLE BASSINGTON" is difficult to read in places given it's showcasing of cruelty.

In some respects reading SAKI in reference to other authors is helpful, but it's a poisoned chalice compared to the soul enriching literature of P.G. Wodehouse

Listening to P.G Wodehouse Youtube audiobooks is a splendid way in which to proceed....
