Magazine - The Escapist - The Atlantic

I was tickled to learn that, after I discovered the joys of reading Wodehouse, that he lived and was buried not ten miles from the house I grew up in on eastern Long Island. Magazine - The Escapist - The Atlantic: Wodehouse’s correspondence, which begins in 1899, before the death of Queen Victoria, and ends in 1975, just before his own death at age 93, conveys both the scope and the narrowness of his life. There need not be any contradiction here: Wodehouse wrote nearly 100 books over eight decades, while simultaneously engaging in one solid marriage, a limited number of friendships, and a private life consisting of reading, writing, and golf.
