Summary "Mike" by P. G. Wodehouse is a novel set in the early 20th century that depicts the life of a young boy named Mike Jackson as he transitions to Wrykyn, a public school. The story focuses on Mike's passion for cricket, the relationships he navigates within his family and at school, and the challenges of fitting in and making a name for himself in a competitive environment where his older brothers have set a high standard. The opening of the novel introduces us to the Jackson family during a breakfast scene characterized by a mix of excitement and brotherly rivalry. Mike's family eagerly anticipates his upcoming enrollment at Wrykyn, a move that sparks discussions of cricket and familial expectations. We learn that Mike is seen as a cricketing prodigy by his professional coach, Saunders, and that he has high hopes of making a mark when he arrives at his new school. As Mike prepares for his journey, readers are drawn into his thoughts and feelings about the changes ahead, setting the stage for his adventures and misadventures as he seeks to carve out his own identity amid the legacy of his athletic siblings.
