Beschreibung
"A Damsel in Distress" is a romantic comedy novel written by Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, first published in 1919. The story revolves around Maud Marsh, a young American woman who travels to England and becomes stranded in the countryside. She is rescued by George Bevan, a wealthy and charming gentleman who falls in love with her at first sight. However, Maud is already engaged to Geoffrey Raymond, a dull and unromantic peer. George sets out to win Maud's heart and must overcome numerous obstacles, including her snobbish family and the scheming efforts of Raymond's sister. The novel is filled with Wodehouse's trademark wit and humor, as well as his penchant for creating eccentric and memorable characters. The story also features several subplots, including the romantic entanglements of Maud's cousin, Lady Caroline Byng, and the hilarious misadventures of George's valet, Albert.
