Judgment About Books Pigs Have Wings (Blandings Castle #8)

Wodehouse is ALWAYS funny.

"If you like your baronets slender and willowy, you would not have cared much for Sir Gregory Parsloe." (36)Needing a bit of cheer, I decided to sneak in another Wodehouse. I was not disappointedin fact, I am going to stick my neck out here and say that Pigs Have Wings is the funniest of the Blandings novels.

What have I learned from this book? Wodehouse gets lightyears of mileage out of the same basic plot time and time again. Pigs Have Wings has the same plot elements as the other Blandings Castle books: 1) a pig napping2) a broken engagement3) an imposter at the castleHere's how it went down:Sir Gregory Parsloe brings in a ringer for the Fat Pig contest in an effort to keep the Empress of Blandings from three-peating.

4½ stars for the book but I didn't really care for Jeremy Sinden's narration. In particular, his voices for Lord Emsworth and his sister Connie grated on me.

"No," said Lady Constance, after a moment's thought. "No, I shall not dismiss Beach. I take the view that he was led astray by Galahad. Galahad! I remember, when we were children," said Lady Constance wistfully, "seeing Galahad fall into that deep pond in the kitchen garden. And just as he was sinking for the last time, one of the gardeners came and pulled him out," she added, speaking with a sort of wild regret. It was plain that she was in agreement with the poet that of all sad words of
