- Speaking of referring to Wodehouse' works as a Canon, does anyone
- see the similarity between the Jeeves stories and the Sherlock
- Holmes stories?
-
- * The adventures of two bachelors
- * who share an apartment in London
- * one is brilliant and inscrutable
- * the other one narrates, leaving the reader to try and figure
- out what the brilliant one sees before it's revealed by the
- turn of events.
