''Meet Mr. Mulliner'' is a collection of short stories by P. G. Wodehouse. First published in the United Kingdom on 27 September 1927 by Herbert Jenkins, and in the United States on 2 March 1928 by Doubleday, Doran.〔McIlvaine, E., Sherby, L.S. and Heineman, J.H. (1990) ''P.G. Wodehouse: A comprehensive bibliography and checklist''. New York: James H. Heineman, pp. 53-54. ISBN 087008125X〕 It introduces the irrepressible pub raconteur Mr. Mulliner, who narrates all nine of the book's stories. The last story, "Honeysuckle Cottage", was not originally a Mr. Mulliner story; it was given a Mulliner frame for the book, and is the only one of the stories which is not explicitly narrated from the bar-parlour of the Anglers' Rest public house. ==Contents== The original story titles and publication dates were as follows: * "The Truth about George" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', July 1926 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 3 July 1926 * "A Slice of Life" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', August 1926 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 7 August 1926 * "Mulliner's Buck-U-Uppo" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', November 1926 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 4 September 1926 * "The Bishop's Move" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', September 1927 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 20 August 1927 * "Came the Dawn" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', July 1927 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 11 June 1927 * "The Story of William" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', May 1927 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 9 April 1927 (as "It Was Only a Fire") * "Portrait of a Disciplinarian" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', October 1927 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 24 September 1927 * "The Romance of a Bulb-Squeezer" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', March 1927 * * U.S.: ''Liberty'', 12 March 1927 * "Honeysuckle Cottage" * * U.K.: ''Strand'', February 1925 * * U.S.: ''Saturday Evening Post'', 24 January 1925 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「Meet Mr Mulliner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
