Why read it?

1 author picked My Man Jeeves as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved the interactions between the butler and his employer. The author understood the relationship, and I really liked how he put humor and sarcasm into the conversations. In my opinion, a butler needs to be grounded; otherwise, it can be a really stressful job. The main character, Jeeves, recognizes that he is the perfect employer for a male butler and doesn’t want the situation to change.

From Peter's list on The best books featuring butlers.
