Summary "Adventures of Bindle" by Herbert George Jenkins is a humorous novel likely written in the early 20th century. It follows the exploits of Joseph Bindle, a furniture remover, as he navigates the intricacies of his home life, work, and the various comical characters around him, including his wife, Mrs. Bindle, and a new lodger named Mr. Gupperduck. The book delves into the comedic misunderstandings and domestic disputes that ensue in Bindle's world. The opening of the book sets the stage for Bindle's witty character as he engages in a humorous conversation with his wife during supper. Tensions arise when Mrs. Bindle announces her intention to take in a lodger to help with their household expenses, causing Bindle to express his reluctance and skepticism towards the idea, especially regarding the newcomer’s interaction with his wife. The reader is introduced to Bindle's personality through his candid remarks and clever wordplay as he reflects on the peculiarities and foibles of both his married life and the people around him, particularly hinting at the humorous complications that may arise with the lodger's arrival. The stage is set for further comedic adventures as the narrative unfolds, indicating that the story will maintain this light-hearted and entertaining tone throughout.
