Sunset at Blandings is the final, unfinished novel by the beloved author P.G. Wodehouse. Although Wodehouse passed away before completing this work, it remains a delightful installment in the Blandings Castle series.
The novel follows the familiar Blandings formula: a pretty niece is brought to the castle to be separated from her suitor. The suitor, using an assumed name, infiltrates with the help of the ever-resourceful Gally. Meanwhile, the hapless Lord Emsworth innocently divulges secrets to an angry sister, creating a web of comic misunderstandings.
Despite its incomplete nature, Sunset at Blandings offers readers a glimpse into Wodehouse's masterful storytelling. His notes provide insight into the intended plot's final stages, allowing fans to imagine the conclusion of this charming tale.
Even in his final years, Wodehouse's writing remained funny, fresh, and young at heart, filled with sunshine and the promise of love.
