About this book
P.G. Wodehouse's *Uneasy Money* is a delightfully absurd romantic comedy that proves money doesn't solve everything—it complicates it spectacularly. Published during the First World War, this witty novel follows Bill, Lord Dawlish, a pleasant but perpetually unlucky gentleman who unexpectedly inherits five million dollars from a grateful American he once helped on a golf course. What should be a blessing becomes a curse when Bill's attempt to return the windfall sets him on a transatlantic adventure riddled with mishaps, mistaken identities, burglaries, and firearms.
Originally serialized in the Saturday Evening Post and Strand Magazine between 1915 and 1916, *Uneasy Money* showcases Wodehouse at his comedic best. The novel captures the author's signature blend of romantic entanglement and farcical humor, as Bill juggles his demanding fiancée, well-meaning relatives, and a series of increasingly ridiculous obstacles. Every attempt to do the right thing spirals into chaos, delivering laugh-out-loud moments and charming observations about human nature.
Perfect for fans of vintage humor and romantic comedy, this audiobook offers the ideal escape—a lighthearted journey through the absurdities of wealth and love. Wodehouse's masterful storytelling and endearing characters make *Uneasy Money* an irresistible listen for anyone seeking witty entertainment and timeless comedic brilliance.
