A Pelican At Blandings forms part of the Blandings Castle saga, being the tenth full-length novel to be set there, the last one fully completed by Wodehouse. The title refers to Galahad Threepwood, survivor of the notorious Pelican Club.

Blandings Castle lacks its usual balm for the Earl of Emsworth, as his stern sister Lady Constance Keeble is once more in residence. The Duke of Dunstable is also infesting the place again, along with the standard quota of American millionaires, romantic youths, con artists, imposters and so on. With a painting of reclining nude at the centre of numerous intrigues, Gally's genius is once again required to sort things out.
