Octavo (8" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's green boards with gilt lettering to spine in pictorial dust jacket. (APG Wodehouse: 110a) First edition. Monty Bodkin's year in Hollywood is completed and he has returned to London, leaving his secretary Sandy Miller heartbroken, her love unmentioned, unrequited. Monty's desires lie elsewhere - with the English hockey international Gertrude Butterwick to be precise. Butterwick pere is horrified at Monty's return, Ivor Llewellyn breathes a huge sigh of relief, and the Drones Club pricks up its ears. Attentive students of the Wodehouse canon will recall that Mr Butterwick made it a condition of Monty's betrothal to Gertrude that Monty would hold down a job for a year, which more or less sank any chance of the liaison coming to a fruition; but Monty succeeded in blackmailing Mr Llewellyn into giving him a job. Now, with the conditions plainly satisfied, Monty confronts Mr Butterwick to claim the hand of Gertrude. His return to London should, he feels, be in the style of a Roman triumph. But Hell hath no fury like a flummoxed Butterwick, and the Bodkin road to happiness is arduous and pitfall through and through. Condition: Corners bumped.
