O QUE SIGNIFICA WODEHOUSE EM INGLÊS
P. G. Wodehouse
Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, KBE, era um humorista inglês cujo corpo de trabalho inclui novelas, histórias curtas, peças, poemas, letras de músicas e inúmeras peças de jornalismo. Ele teve enorme sucesso popular durante uma carreira que durou mais de setenta anos, e seus muitos escritos continuam a ser amplamente lidos. Apesar das perturbações políticas e sociais que ocorreram durante sua vida, muitas das quais foram gastas na França e nos Estados Unidos, a tela principal de Wodehouse permaneceu a de uma sociedade de classe alta inglesa pré e pós-Primeira Guerra Mundial, refletindo seu nascimento, educação e carreira de escritor juvenil. Um mestre reconhecido da prosa inglesa, Wodehouse foi admirado tanto por contemporâneos como Hilaire Belloc, Evelyn Waugh e Rudyard Kipling e por escritores recentes como Christopher Hitchens, Stephen Fry, Douglas Adams, J. K. Rowling e John Le Carré. Mais conhecido hoje pelos romances e histórias curtas de Jeeves and Blandings Castle, Wodehouse também foi dramaturgo e letrista que foi autor e escritor de 15 peças e de 250 letras para cerca de 30 comédias musicais, muitas delas produzidas em colaboração com Jerome Kern e Guy Bolton.
