Jeeves' Bookshelf
"My personal tastes lie more in the direction of Dostoyevsky and the great Russians."
- Jeeves, in Bertie Wooster Sees It Through by P.G. Wodehouse
As an interesting side note, the back cover of the book says "...Wodehouse rhymes with good house, not with roadhouse." I've heard it both ways, but I suppose the back cover should be right. Especially since it was published while Plum himself was still alive.

I've heard it used both ways aswell but my impression is that it rymes with good house. I guess this conferms my thoughts.
