Wodehouse is a novel written during the early 20th century, likely in the 1910s. The story revolves around Jimmy Pitt, a charming and somewhat reckless young man who has recently come into a significant fortune but struggles with his restlessness and a desire for excitement. The narrative promises humor, adventure, and the exploration of Jimmy's character as he navigates his newfound wealth and the social circles around him. At the start of the novel, we find ourselves in the bustling smoking-room of the Strollers' Club in New York, where actors and theater-goers convene after a show. Jimmy Pitt, a recent returnee from Europe, is introduced through the conversations of his friends, highlighting his eccentric past and his philanthropic heart. The infamous topic of conversation soon leads to a wager between Jimmy and another member, Arthur Mifflin, about Jimmy's ability to break into a house that night, spotlighting both his bravado and the comedic potential of his antics. As the opening progresses, Wodehouse sets up a delightful mix of wit and character dynamics, hinting at whimsical misadventures that lie ahead for Jimmy and his peers.
