I am not such a big lover of classics but after my friend’s suggestion, I decided to give PG Wodehouse a try and oh boy, it was certainly worth it!
I read Big Money by PG Wodehousee and would suggest it to all those who love the taste of humor in writing.
The story is about two friends Lord Biskerton or Biscuit and Berry Conway and their financial troubles. The twists and turns in the story make it difficult to keep down. The love life tangles of the two friends, the covetousness of their family, the knowledge of bogus shares not being so and so many other tiny parts of the plot make it an awesome read!
Patterson Frisby is the miserly boss of Berry Conway, who is interested in a copper mine held by
And Big Money is not all about money, but equally balanced with a humorous love tale of two friends engaged to the same lady and then one deciding on other.
By the summary I give you, I am certain you find he book interesting. The style of writing is quite modern and well enough for a modern day fiction lover.
The intricacies of the plot have you in splits at quite a few times throughout the book.
A prudent read for all so go……..hurry and catch a copy!!

I got hooked on Plum when I was in 8th grade and have read almost EIGHTY of his books - including his biographical work, 'Performing Flea'.
On average, I read P.G.Wodehouse's books 3 times - and my favorites, like 'Hot Ice' and the Blandings Castle series have been thumbed 10 or more times!
Welcome to the fascinating, magical world of Wodehouse, Meg. You'll love it too.
All success
