Russian translations
If ever Bertie needs extracting from the soup, he must call for Jeeves.
Whoever or whatever the cause of Bertie Wooster's consternation - Bobbie
Wickham giving away his fierce Aunt Agatha's dog; getting into the bad
books of Sir Roderick Glossop; attempting to scupper the unfortunate
infatuation of his friend Tuppy for a robust opera singer - Jeeves can
always be relied on to untangle the most ferocious of muddles - even
Bertie's.
