Stanley and the WomenAmis, Kingsley

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"For the non-drinker the novel is puzzling. Drinking here is not undertaken to outwit the oppressions of the state or to celebrate natural good fortune; it is undertaken for the sole purpose of getting drunk...."
Anita Brookner, Spectator, 09/13/1986
Review:"The men drink...because there is nothing else to do. Their wives drink also....This is a brilliant novel of great honesty....It is sadly comic and comically sad but, in the wonderful paradox of art, both consoling and stimulating. There is one old devil who is writing better than he ever did."
Anthony Burgess, Observer (London), 09/14/1986
