We all love a good laugh, a humorous mixup, a bumbling fool, a ridiculous situation. In "The Top 10," editor J. Peder Zane puts together a list of the top 10 comic works of all time. Here you will find a list of the humorous stories that have stood the test of time.
Including what is arguably the most hilarious scene in any of Wodehouse's works – Gussie Fink-Nottle's drunken speech at the Market Snodsbury Grammar School – this nutty farce follows Bertie Wooster and his talented servant Jeeves as they plot to make Cupid's arrows hit desired hearts. Newt-loving Gussie Fink-Nottle and saggy Madeline Basset may seem an implausible match. But, following a succession of mild confusions, Bertie and Jeeves just might prove themselves able to do the impossible.
