It is sadly comic and comically sad -- Anthony Burgess He was a genuine comic writer, probably the best after P. G. Wodehouse ... He had a lasting influence and was a very good novelist -- John Mortimer A bloody funny lovely bloody book... A genius at full throttle * Financial Times * In these explicit days, Mr Amis is the laureate of the unsayable, the literary it man * Sunday Telegraph *
