«Au pays du fou rire» is the humorous novel by P.G. Wodehouse, published by 10/18 in paperback (288 pages, in French).
Lady Clara is upset to learn that her son, a known drinker, has become engaged to an American woman. To break off the engagement, she launches an offensive that takes her to Hollywood, where the clash between British and American ways leads to misunderstandings and absurd situations.
The work originally appeared in English in 1936 under the title «Laughing Gas»; the French translation is by Anne-Marie Bouloch. It belongs to the Drones Club series.
For those who read French and enjoy farcical comedy and Wodehouse's British humour.
Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse was an English writer and one of the most widely read humorists of the 20th century. His creations include the feather-brained Bertie Wooster and his sagacious valet, Jeeves; the immaculate and loquacious Psmith; Lord Emsworth and the Blandings Castle set; the Oldest Member, with stories about golf; and Mr. Mulliner, with tall tales on subjects ranging from bibulous bishops to megalomaniac movie moguls.
