The Pothunters
Avant de tisser les délicieuses sagas de Jeeves et Wooster, avant que les excentricités du Château de Blandings ne prennent forme, P.G. Wodehouse a introduit son génie comique singulier au monde avec The Pothunters. Ce charmant premier roman, publié en 1902, offre un aperçu précoce et éclairant de l'esprit d'un écrivain qui allait devenir l'un des humoristes les plus appréciés de la littérature anglaise. Il invite les auditeurs dans un monde familier, mais distinctement wodehousien : l'école publique britannique. Pour quiconque cherchant à comprendre la genèse de l'esprit inégalé de Wodehouse et sa maîtrise inégalable de la prose, ou désirant simplement une dose réconfortante de mystère léger et de douce satire, ce texte fondateur reste aussi frais et captivant aujourd'hui qu'il l'était il y a plus d'un siècle. C'est une œuvre fondatrice, démontrant la brillance naissante qui allait définir ses œuvres ultérieures plus célèbres.
