bryce_is_a_librarian's review against another edition
4.0
A balanced microcosm of Amis's work with all the pleasure's and foibles that suggests.
Only reason I'm bothering to write a "review" is to note the rather extraordinary resemblance between one of the final stories and the first twenty minutes of Oldboy.
