Adventures of Bindle

Rate this book
Jenkins' most popular fictional creation was Mr. Joseph Bindle, who first appeared in a humorous novel in 1916 and in a number of sequels. In the preface to the books, T. P. O'Connor said that "Bindle is the greatest Cockney that has come into being through the medium of literature since Dickens wrote Pickwick Papers". The stories are based on the comedic drama of life at work, at home and all the adventures that take place along the way.

Not this copy, but can't find the one I've got. Mine is an orange hardback sans dustjacket. Inscribed on the inside cover 'Herbert Potts, 33 Grange Road from Chinase & Edie, March/17/48' don't suppose it is 'Chinase' but that's what it looks like, big scrawling writing. Aren't books fabulously interesting, even before you've read them! Fancy his company publishing P G Wodehouse. I'm so impressed. I have a lot of those as well, but only modern paperbacks.

I found this to be one of the best, most humorous books I have read in years. I suspect a piece of my enjoyment came from the incredible narration skills of Don W Jenkins. The combination had me laughing out loud, especially during the last chapter. Now my neighbors have confirmation of my 'insanity'- it's not just my power-walking.

If you need some fun, get the LibriVox copy and enjoy yourself.
