Hi there,
I found this site when googling “part brass rags”, mentioned in a documentary about Wodehouse, available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jtZMAFA2Zo. I thought you might be interested in it, and in hearing Wodehouse’s voice. :-)
Most of Wodehouses’ books are available on audiobooks. Some readers are terrific. Others, not so much. My favorite readers are Alexander Spencer (does the best women’s voices), Frederick Douglas (does the best regional accents), and Jonathon Cecil.
