Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (1881-1975) was a master of English prose, who produced novels, collections of short stories, scripts, screenplays and lyrics for Broadway shows. Wodehouse enjoyed a long, prosperous career, despite the many political and social changes that he witnessed throughout his life. Although he spent most of his time in France and the United States, his works usually reflected his early life experiences in pre-war English upper-class society, and were typically characterized by the trials and tribulations of the well-to-do. «The Adventures of Sally» was originally published in 1921 as a serial in the American «Collier's Weekly» magazine, and a year later in «Grand Magazine» in the United Kingdom, until it finally appeared in novel form in 1923. The story of Sally Nicholas, a Boston woman who unexpectedly comes into a large sum of money, is full of twists and turns as the young woman learns the hard way how money seems to make everything more complicated.
