SOBRE O AUTOR

P. G. Wodehouse

P. G. Wodehouse nasceu em Guildford, cidade inglesa, no ano de 1881. Por razões financeiras, cedo iniciou a sua vida profissional como bancário, função que desempenhou durante dois anos e que não lhe despertou qualquer interesse. Começou, nessa altura, a publicar histórias e peças jornalísticas e, em 1902, o jovem autor passou a viver unicamente da escrita. Pouco tempo depois, transformou-se numa personalidade de renome enquanto escritor, jornalista e mesmo como colaborador na criação de espectáculos musicais ao lado de figuras como Cole Porter e Guy Bolton.
Ainda antes da Primeira Guerra Mundial, em 1909, P. G. Wodehouse viajou para os Estados Unidos onde acabou por viver grande parte da sua vida. Casou-se em 1914, dando início a uma relação que durou mais de sessenta anos.
Em 1955, adoptou a nacionalidade americana e viveu o resto da vida perto de Nova Iorque na companhia da mulher e de vários animais de estimação. Morreu em 1975, tendo escrito cerca de cem livros.
