First published in 1932, Hot Water is a classic comic novel from the master of English humour, P. G. Wodehouse. The story centres on J. Wellington Gedge, an American millionaire reluctantly dragged to a French château by his social-climbing wife, where a stolen compromising letter sets off a magnificent chain of mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and farcical misadventures. Wodehouse orchestrates his plot with the precision of a Swiss watch, delivering perfectly timed comic set-pieces and an irresistible cast of blundering aristocrats, scheming socialites, and hapless innocents. Sharp, witty, and endlessly entertaining, this novel stands as a superb example of Wodehouse at his most brilliantly inventive.
