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.
