1969 The Green Man
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper
Featuring the original illustrated dustwrapper designed by Colin Andrews. A Times Literary Supplement reviewer described The Green Man as "three genres of novel in one”: ghost story, moral fable, and comic novel. The novel reflects Amis' willingness to experiment with genre novels (e.g., The Alteration (science fiction/alternate history), or Colonel Sun: a James Bond Adventure) while displaying many of the characteristics of his conventional novels, both in superficial aspects such as fogeyishness and problems with alcohol, and in more substantive aspects such as a self-reflective observation of human cruelty and selfishness in everyday relations.
