About this Item
Light spotting to top edge, signed 'Kingsley Amis' to the title page. Reading Memoirs is like an evening's talk in the pub in the most congenial and entertaining company. The book describes Amis's family in South London, his schooldays, Oxford, the Army, Swansea, Cambridge and then leaving the academic world to work as a full-time writer. Interspersed are portraits of friends and foes, an Amis gallery written in one of the few unmistakable literary voices of our time: acerbic, affectionate, authoritative, comic, occasionally rueful, always honest.
