Blurb: 
Never before published in the United States, this early, autobiographical novel by P.G. Wodehouse aptly describes the perils of a writer's world in London circa 1900. The protagonistan author manquéattempts by any means necessary to establish himself in literary circles. But his subterfuges backfire, his amours come a cropper, and only an ingenious, beguiling denouement saves his skin. A unique feature of the novel, which foreshadows the techniques of the mature Wodehouse, is his telling of the story from the perspective of many characters. Consequently, devoted fans of Plum now have an opportunity to glimpse a genius stretching, nay perfecting, his narrative powers.
