Full moon / P.G. Wodehouse

Fiction titles shelved alphabetically by author

When the moon is full at blandings, strange things happen: among them the painting of a portrait of the Empress, twice in succession winner in the Fat Pigs Class at the Shropshire Agricultural Show. What better choice of artist, in Lord Emsworth's opinion, than Landseer. The rnowned painter of 'The Stag at Bay' may have been dead for decades, but that doesn't prevent Galahad Threepwood from introducing him to the castle - or rather introducing Bill Lister, Gally's godson, so desperately in love that he's determined to enter Blandings in yet another imposture. Add a gaggle of fearsome aunts, uncles and millionaires, mix in Freddie Threepwood, Beach the Butler and the gardner McAllister, and the moon is full indeed
