The Man Upstairs

Plot

A collection of short stories. Most of the stories had previously appeared in magazines, generally Strand Magazine in the UK and Cosmopolitan or Collier's Weekly in the United States. Although the book was not published in the US, many of the stories were eventually made available to US readers in The Uncollected Wodehouse (1976) and The Swoop! and Other Stories (1979).

It is a miscellaneous collection, not featuring any of Wodehouse's regular characters; most of the stories concern love and romance.
