There are several flaws in the plan , as the girl is not so interested in him as he would like. also, she's not physically his type both in form and sexual appetite. This is one of Amis' more cynical novels, and the tone was too sharp to make it a great hit. ( ) Kingsley Amis is at the height of his satirical powers in this skewed retelling of the Cinderella tale set in late 60s London. While managing to eviscerate both London's television and the American, Amis' most astonishing feat is to deliver a such poignant and optimistic love story in world the author sees as nearly broken beyond repair. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The quickest way to get rich is to marry someone rich, but how do you do this if you aren't yet rich? TV chat-show host Ronnie Appleyard is preoccupied with this question as he pursues wealthy heiress Simona Quick over two continents in the company of braying aristocrats, Greek shipping magnates, American dandies and the dreaded mother-in-law to be. But as he comes closer to his prize other questions present themselves. Is the androgenous Simona really worth it? Why doesn't she like sex? Is it possible to drink all day? With his unerring eye for absurdity and class satire Kingsley Amis shows us what happens when money meets naked ambition. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
