FALL FAMILY HUMOR AT 1001: Honoring Paid Companions
P. G. Wodehouse's short story, "THE BEST SAUCE," focuses on the difficult circumstances of Eve Hendrie, a paid companion who is both disturbed and perpetually hungry due to her employer, Mrs. Rastall-Retford, enforcing a Spartan diet on the household. The narrative details the unexpected arrival of Peter Rayner, a persistent suitor whom Eve claims to dislike, who followed her to the oppressive household after her previous employment ended. The climax occurs during a nervous game of bridge, when Eve, fearing a scolding, secretly hides the ace of clubs in a vegetarian cheese sandwich that a famished Peter immediately consumes, thus ending the game and allowing him to continue his insistent courtship.
