Mike and Psmith is a novel by P.G. Wodehouse, first published in 1909. The story follows two central characters: a bright young boy at a boarding school and his more eccentric and charming friend, known for his wit, self-assurance, and penchant for adventure. The novel begins with the boy's life at a fictional boarding school, where he faces the typical trials of school life, including rivalries, sports, and academic challenges. However, it is when he meets his friend that the real fun begins. The eccentric friend, with his sharp mind and unconventional ideas, takes the boy under his wing, and together they embark on a series of misadventures. One of their most memorable escapades involves a summer job in the country, where the friend's antics and the boy's good-natured nature cause havoc but also lead to an unexpected resolution. Wodehouse's signature comedic style is on full display, combining sharp dialogue, witty characterizations, and a lighthearted approach to the trials of youth, friendship, and growing up. The novel is notable for its delightful characters, particularly the amusing and unflappable friend, who has since become one of Wodehouse's most beloved creations.
