''A Man of Means'' is a collection of six short stories written in collaboration by P. G. Wodehouse and C. H. Bovill. The stories first appeared in the United Kingdom in the ''Strand'' in 1914, and in the United States in ''Pictorial Review'' in 1916. They were later published in book form in the UK by Porpoise Books in 1991; the collection was released on Project Gutenberg in 2003. The stories all star Roland Bleke, a young man for whom financial success is always a mixed blessing. The plots follow on from each other, sometimes directly, and occasionally refer back to past events in Bleke's meteoric career. == Contents == * "The Episode of the Landlady's Daughter" (''"The Landlady's Daughter"'') * * UK: ''Strand'', April 1914 * * US: ''Pictorial Review'', May 1916 * "The Episode of the Financial Napoleon" (''"The Bolt from the Blue"'') * * UK: ''Strand'', May 1914 * * US: ''Pictorial Review'', June 1916 * "The Episode of the Theatrical Venture" * * UK: ''Strand'', June 1914 * * US: ''Pictorial Review'', July 1916 * "The Episode of the Live Weekly" * * UK: ''Strand'', July 1914 * * US: ''Pictorial Review'', August 1916 * "The Episode of the Exiled Monarch" (''"The Diverting Episode of the Exiled Monarch"'') * * UK: ''Strand'', August 1914 * * US: ''Pictorial Review'', September 1916 * "The Episode of the Hired Past" * * UK: ''Strand'', September 1914 * * US: ''Pictorial Review'', October 1916 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Man of Means」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
