When the Anti-Death League is founded they are at last offered the chance to rebel and perhaps escape...

Biographie de l'auteur
Kingsley Amis's (1922-95) works take a humorous yet highly critical look at British society, especially in the period following the end of World War II. Born in London, Amis explored his disillusionment in novels such as That Uncertain Feeling (1955). His other works include The Green Man (1970), Stanley and the Women (1984), and The Old Devils (1986), which won the Booker Prize. Amis also wrote poetry, criticism, and short stories.
Description
To have said so much about the human condition with such lightness of touch ... is an extraordinary achievement ( Sunday Telegraph )
Amis amazes at every turn ( The Times )
