Study Shows: Reading Too Much Wodehouse Not Possible

And by “study” we mean, Jason Diamond from Vol. 1 Brooklyn who reports

“I read 3 books by P.G. Wodehouse (Money for Nothing, The Adventures of Sally, and Summer Lightning/Fish Preferred) as part of an experiment on how much P.G. Wodehouse I can read in an entire year, considering he’s literally got hundreds of selections to pick from.  I passed on the Jeeves stuff (some of which I’ve already read), and decided to read a few of the books that fall under the “other” category — most of which I picked up at The Strand.  Now that I’m immersing myself in his work, I see his influence on Zadie Smith to the Marx Brothers, and even maybe the Harry Potter series.

Norton’s got your back in the Wodehouse department
