Swoop!
'Swoop!' Summary
In "Swoop!" by P.G. Wodehouse, England finds itself under the simultaneous assault of nine different armies. The chaos is palpable, with each invading force bringing its own unique brand of mayhem to the nation. The story follows the adventures of various characters as they navigate this surreal and comedically heightened situation, encountering real-life figures like Herbert Gladstone, Edgar Wallace, and Bob Fitzsimmons in their midst. The book's primary strength lies in its wit and absurdity, with Wodehouse's signature humor shining through in the face of utter pandemonium.Book Details
