Golf Stories

Step onto the hallowed, often hilarious, greens of P. G. Wodehouse's golfing universe, where the pursuit of a good handicap is as serious as any societal machination. This collection brings together his finest golf stories, largely narrated by the irrepressible Oldest Member, a man whose wisdom (and verbosity) is as legendary as his swing. From star-crossed lovers whose fates hinge on a putt, to duffers and champions alike whose lives are irrevocably shaped by the capricious bounce of a golf ball, Wodehouse paints a vibrant, utterly charming picture of early 20th-century golf club life, replete with its eccentricities, rivalries, and profound devotion to the game.
