Read the story ‘Lord Emsworth and the Girl Friend’ by P. G. Wodehouse.
उत्तर
Summary of "Lord Emsworth and the Girl Friend" The story follows the mild-mannered and slightly scatterbrained Lord Emsworth, the ninth Earl of Emsworth, who has two primary passions in life: his prize-winning pig, the Empress of Blandings, and his garden at Blandings Castle. Despite his noble title, Lord Emsworth is happiest when he's away from social obligations and can tend to his peaceful pursuits. One day, while strolling through the gardens, Lord Emsworth encounters a young girl named Gladys, who has run away from an unpleasant job and an even less pleasant boss. She is trying to find refuge on the castle grounds, and, much to Lord Emsworth’s surprise, she wins his heart with her cheerful personality and shared love for animals. Lord Emsworth finds himself sympathizing with her plight, and, in a moment of uncharacteristic boldness, he decides to help her. The story humorously unfolds as Lord Emsworth navigates his interactions with Gladys and attempts to protect her from those who would send her back to her harsh former life. His unexpected friendship with Gladys helps him realize the value of compassion and even inspires him to stand up for something—rare for the timid earl. |
