Reviews: "This brilliant novel won for its author the Thomas R Coward Memorial Award in Fiction. The wit is so coruscating, the fantasy so original, the satire so penetrating and the comedy of the most diverse and unexpected situations so truly comic, that not for a single page is the reader left unentertained as he is led by the protagonist through a maze of preposterously ludicrous adventures all over the world . . . wildly erotic, utterly delightful . . . one of the most brilliant pieces of satire ever written."

Quote from this book "My dear Ahmin, I write in sorrow; you read, no doubt, in anger. But can you read? If not, I humbly believe it might be worth your while to learn, since I have much to tell you - more, perhaps, than I shall ever tell another living soul. Nothing can stop me now, anyway. I'll finish this thing whether or not you begin it. My role is the importunate stranger on the train, the penitent outside the box who doesn't realize midnight struck and the priest dozed off long ago, the madman who buttonholes you in the park, the radio operator, his wireless still intact, straned on a desert island not on the map. . . . Am I dodo or a mutation? It depends on your point of view. In any any case, I'm a nuisance but not a bore." opening paragraph Secondhand booksellers |
