The Users, The - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

Back in print, a witty and deliciously quirky novel about life in '60s Britain

"The Users is a remarkable debut -- sexy without being lubricious, tough, witty, with a very palatable astringency. The dialogue is paint-fresh and the characters very much of our time". -- Anthony Burgess

"Very, very funny. Three corpses litter the last chapters, but the wit lingers on". -- The New York Times Book Review

Originally published in 1968 by the Citadel Press, this strange, allegorical horror thriller with links to the pop art period of the '60s by the Literary Editor of England's Time Out magazine, opens in a mortuary after a freak angling accident and continues on a bizarre course that takes in aspects of blackmail, illegal abortion, drug addiction, student unrest, pornography, murder, and the non-return of library books.
