Book ID/图书代码： 11701213B64892

English Summary/英文概要： This is a Blandings novel. "The Empress of Blandings", prize-winning pig and all-consuming passion of Clarence, Ninth Earl of Emsworth, has disappeared. Blandings Castle is in uproar and there are suspects a-plenty - from Galahad Threepwood (who is writing memoirs so scandalous they will rock the aristocracy to its foundations) to the Efficient Baxter, chilling former secretary to Lord Emsworth. Even Beach the Butler seems deeply embroiled. And what of Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe, Clarence’s arch-rival, and his passion for prize-winning pigs? With the castle full of deceptions and impostors, will Galahad’s memoirs ever see the light of day? And will the Empress be returned...?

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 布兰丁城堡的皇后, 一头获奖的猪，和满腔热情的克拉伦斯，埃姆斯沃斯世袭伯爵九世，都不见了。 布兰丁城堡一片哗然，从加拉哈德·特雷普伍德(Galahad Threepwood)(此人所撰写的回忆录简直是不堪入目，足以让贵族们为之震惊)到能干的的巴克斯特，令人敬畏的前国务卿大臣埃姆沃斯勋爵，甚至连能干的管家也深陷其中。那么克拉伦斯的夙敌格雷戈里·帕斯洛爵士，对这头获奖猪的强烈爱好又如何呢? 这部喜剧杰作是伍德豪斯在他的巅峰时期，笔下英伦经典庄园的体现。(Sandy)

"Not only the funniest English novelist who ever wrote but one of our finest stylists. His world is perfect, his writing is perfect. What more is there to be said?" (Susan Hill)
