William Tell Told Again
P.G. Wodehouse, the master of British wit, turns his immaculate comedic talents to one of Switzerland's most cherished folk heroes. The legend of William Tell, the marksman forced to shoot an apple off his son's head to free his people from Austrian oppression, gets the full Wodehouse treatment: wordplay, gentle absurdity, and prose that purrs like a satisfied cat. The story you likely know - tyrannical governors, impossible bets, a very nervous boy - unfolds with the author's signature blend of comic timing and cheerful irreverence. Wodehouse neither mocks the tale nor worships it; he simply finds the delightful absurdity in arrows, apples, and alpine revolution. The result is a short, sparkling read that proves no legend is beyond the reach of a good laugh. Ideal for anyone who wants their folklore with a generous helping of whimsy.
