Description
Book SynopsisA Golf collection
From his favourite chair on the terrace above the ninth hole, The Oldest Member tells a series of hilarious golfing stories. From Evangeline, Bradbury Fisher''s fifth wife and a notorious ''golfing giggler'', to poor Rollo Podmarsh whose game was so unquestionably inept that ''he began to lose his appetite and would moan feebly at the sight of a poached egg'', the game of golf, its players and their friends and enemies are here shown in all their comic glory. One of Wodehouse''s funniest books, The Heart of Goof is a collection of peerlessly comic short stories.

Wodehouse always lifts your spirits, no matter how high they happen to be already * Lynne Truss *
The incomparable and timeless genius - perfect for readers of all ages, shapes and sizes! * Kate Mosse *
