P.G. Wodehouse And Antisemitism

I wrote a post about two articles concern Wodehouse's antisemitism on my blog:

"I recently read an essay defending P.G. Wodehouse’s Antisemitism, Wodehouse’s Antisemitism In Context by Elliot MiIlstein. It was reprinted in Plumtopia, a blog devoted to Wodehouse. It infuriated me. (Disclaimer: I’m not Jewish, however my spouse is.)"

Please come weigh inat my blog

Wodehouse also seems to suffer from a bad case of misogyny.

And he's pretty unkind to the character who seems to have autism, Gussie Fink-Nottle, whose special interest is newts.
