Psmith, Journalist by P. G. Wodehouse
"Psmith, Journalist" by P. G. Wodehouse is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. This witty and satirical work revolves around the character Psmith, who seeks excitement and adventure in New York City's journalism scene. The narrative begins by introducing the tranquility of New York, juxtaposed with an impending crisis in the local journalism landscape, primarily at a publication called "Cosy Moments", which is set to undergo substantial changes. The
beginning of the novel sets a humorous tone as it describes the mundane state of affairs in New York journalism and the peculiar makeup of "Cosy Moments". The editor, Mr. J. Fillken Wilberfloss, is about to take a lengthy vacation, leaving sub-editor Billy Windsor in charge. Windsor is depicted as disillusioned with the paper’s soft content and yearns for more thrilling journalistic experiences. As the opening chapters unfold, Psmith enters the scene, bringing with him a bold approach to journalism. His ideas for transforming "Cosy Moments" into a more hard-hitting publication create a lively atmosphere, foreshadowing the conflicts and adventures that will follow as they navigate through the cutthroat world of New York's journalism.
