  • Ring for Jeeves is a novel by P. G. Wodehouse, first published in the United Kingdom on 22 April 1953 by Herbert Jenkins, London and in the United States on 15 April 1954 by Simon & Schuster, New York, under the title The Return of Jeeves. The novel features one of Wodehouse's best-known characters, Jeeves. It is the only Jeeves novel in which his employer, Bertie Wooster, does not appear (though he is mentioned), and the only Jeeves story narrated in the third person. Wodehouse adapted the story from a play, Come On, Jeeves, that he had written with his lifelong friend and collaborator Guy Bolton. Set in the early 1950s, the story concerns Bill Belfry, Lord Rowcester, an English aristocrat who is in financial trouble. His future relies on the problem-solving abilities of Jeeves, who is temporarily serving as Bill's butler. (en)
  • Ring på Jeeves! är en roman av P.G. Wodehouse, utgiven i England 1953 med titeln Ring for Jeeves och i USA följande år med titeln The Return of Jeeves. Det är den sjätte romanen om betjänten Jeeves och hans arbetsgivare Bertie Wooster, och den enda i sviten som berättas i tredjepersonsperspektiv eftersom Bertie Wooster, som normalt är berättarjaget, aldrig framträder, utan enbart nämns vid namn. Romanen översattes till svenska av Birgitta Hammar och utgavs på Albert Bonniers förlag 1954. Wodehouse hade 1952 i samarbete med Guy Bolton skrivit en pjäs där en butler vid namn Ponsonby innehade en framträdande roll. Wodehouse föreslog sin vän att butlern skulle få vara Jeeves, för att främja ett ökat publikintresse, och Bolton samtyckte. Wodehouse konverterade pjäsen till romanform och gav den titeln Ring for Jeeves. Scenversionen Come On, Jeeves uruppfördes 1954, efter publiceringen av romanen. (sv)
