Review:

A gruesomely witty cautionary tale (Time)

Every generation should discover this book (Time Out)

Not only about man's violent nature and his capacity to choose between good and evil. It is about the excitements and intoxicating effects of language (Daily Telegraph)

I do not know of any other writer who has done as much with language...a very funny book (William S. Burroughs)

One of the cleverest and most original writers of his generation (The Times)

Book Description:
