讀P. G. Wodehouse 的書

Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouses 是一位20世紀的有名的幽默類作品的英國作家。

對他的簡短的介紹如下：

Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouses was an English author and one of the most widely read humorists of the 20th century. His creations include the feather-brained Bertie Wooster and his sagacious valet, Jeeves; the immaculate and loquacious Psmith; Lord Emsworth and the Blandings Castle set; the Oldest Member, with stories about golf; and Mr Mulliner, with tall tales on subjects ranging from bibulous bishops to megalomaniac movie moguls.

他的書是不是值得看？我還沒有看，看完了，起碼翻過了，才會有看法。不過，
引起我興趣的是這類作品，應該是讓人看了之後覺得好笑又有啓發的。

中文的這類書太少了，連經典的相聲，滑稽戲和現代的諷刺文學都不可能得到受審查老爺的青睞。

如此，有人說國人缺少幽默感，拿其他國家的情況對比一下，應該是一點也不過頭的。

He has the most distorted ideas about wit and humour; he draws over his books and examination papers in the most distressing way and writes foolish rhymes in other people’s books. Notwithstanding he has a genuine interest in literature and can often talk with enthusiasm and good sense about it.
