P.G. Wodehouse England Map for Herb Lester Associates
Design and illustrations for the "BLANDINGS AND BEYOND: PG WODEHOUSE’S ENGLAND" map published by Herb Lester Associates. From the publisher's website:
In which we chart the permanently sun-dappled world of the writer known to devotees as the Master. The large-format map charts locations both fictional and real: Blandings Castle, Brinkley Court, the Drones Club, Bertie Wooster's London flat, Wodehouse's school, Dulwich College, and the bank where he endured a brief, unhappy period working as “the most inefficient clerk whose trouser seat ever polished a stool.
In his works, PG Wodehouse avoided using real-life locations, yet close reading reveals clues. Using all available scholarship, and a lifetime absorbed by the world Wodehouse created, Blandings And Beyond is your passport to what Evelyn Waugh called “Mr Wodehouse’s idyllic world.”
