The Girl on the Boat - Unabridged
ByPublisher Description
"The Girl on the Boat" is an early romantic comedy by P.G. Wodehouse, the master of British comic literature.
First published in 1922, the story follows Sam Marlowe, a young composer, who falls in love at first sight with Wilhelmina "Billie" Bennett aboard an ocean liner crossing the Atlantic. Their budding romance is complicated by a tangle of misunderstandings, interfering relatives, and a previous engagement Billie feels obligated to honor.
Set between New York and England, the novel features Wodehouse's signature wit, absurd situations, and charmingly befuddled characters. The novel showcases Wodehouse's early mastery of light romantic comedy, predating his more famous Jeeves and Wooster stories.
"The Girl on the Boat" is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
