He is clever, witty, ironical' Guardian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat advice can one give a green young author? What purpose do literary prizes serve? Where on earth can a man get a decent bite to eat? This entertaining collection is vintage Kingsley Amis, revealing him at his most robust and incisive, cutting a swathe through such subjects as writers and writing, 'Abroad', eating and drinking, music, language and education. He turns a clear and critical eye on Evelyn Waugh, Anthony Powell, Anthony Burgess, Ian Fleming and Philip Larkin, and does not spare their potential readers in 'Sod the Public: A Consumer's Guide'. In typically razor-sharp, wicked and witty prose, Amis tackles the culture and conceits of his era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49158185582827,"sku":"EB_LI0700_B01-02_SIMS","price":30.52,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780141195308-1.jpg?v=1786016147","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9780141195308","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
