The Adventures of Sally Summary

The Adventures of Sally by P. G. Wodehouse

Sally Nicholas is a pretty and popular American woman working as dance partner for hire. Orphaned, she and her brother, Fillmore, has been on their own for years. However, on Sallys twenty-first birthday, her life is changed when she learns that she and her brother have inherited a fortune, which they now have access to. Fillmore, who is overly ambitious, and impulsive intends on investing his money in schemes that promise fast wealth, in hopes to accumulate an even bigger fortune. Sally is more of a dreamer. She wants to move into her own apartment, maybe start her own business, but first is set on visiting Europe. Though she plans the trip for her fiance to join her, he claims to be on the verge of pure genius and is too busy to travel. Disheartened, but not deterred, Sally travels off to Europe. Because of her status as a wealthy and beautiful American, many British men throw themselves at Sallys feet, hoping to be her suitor. Sallys attention, however, is only won by an awkward redheaded man named Ginger. Concerned by the mans history of employment, or rather, his string of briefly kept jobs, Sally tries to take Ginger under her wing and help him find a suitable job. Though, between helping Ginger, keeping an eye on her brother, and nurturing the dreams of her fiance, Sally finds that even her best intentions go awry and struggles to start managing her own life before she helps others.

The Adventures of Sally is widely praised for its convincing and vivid main character, especially since she is one of the few female protagonists utilized in P.G Wodehouses work. With excellent prose and witty word play, The Adventures of Sally is a fun romantic comedy sure to make a lasting impression.

This edition of P.G Wodehouses The Adventures of Sally features a new, eye-catching cover design and is printed in a stylish font, making it both accessible and modern.

About P. G. Wodehouse

Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (1881-1975) was an English author. Though he was named after his godfather, the author was not a fan of his name and more commonly went by P.G Wodehouse. Known for his comedic work, Wodehouse created reoccurring characters that became a beloved staple of his literature. Though most of his work was set in London, Wodehouse also spent a fair amount of time in the United States. Much of his work was converted into an American version, and he wrote a series of Broadway musicals that helped lead to the development of the American musical. P.G Wodehouses eclectic and prolific canon of work both in Europe and America developed him to be one of the most widely read humorists of the 20th century.
