| Summary | "The Prince and Betty" by P. G. Wodehouse is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Betty Silver, who receives an urgent cable from her stepfather requesting her presence in a mysterious place called Mervo, an island that has transitioned from a monarchy to a republic. The novel introduces themes of love, duty, and the comedic misadventures that arise when personal desires clash with external expectations, particularly involving Betty and her unexpected connection with John, Prince of Mervo. At the start of the narrative, we meet Betty Silver, who appears troubled as she arrives at the Long Island home of her friend Elsa, just as she learns she must leave for Mervo due to her stepfather’s cryptic demand. Meanwhile, John, Prince of Mervo, is introduced as a personable and relatable character who seems blissfully unaware of his royal lineage until circumstances thrust him into that world. As both characters grapple with family expectations and untapped feelings, the story sets the stage for a blend of humor and romance as Betty's presence in Mervo has profound implications for both her future and that of John, leading to an unlikely royal mandate that intertwines their fates.
