England fifty years after its takeover by the Soviet Union is the setting for Kingsley Amis's savage but brilliant new tragi-comedy. In this land where official Rollys-Royces move along horse-drawn carts and where a bottle of whisky might copt \u00A310,000, the Russians have abandoned all allegicange to Marxism and adopted a crude and decadent form of the ways of Tsarist Russian. For the natives, life is grey, but tolerable. For their Russian rulers, frantically pursuing pleasure, it is joyless and loveless. 240pp. Small blue dot sticker to the inner cover, else a very nice copy indeed. \n\n--------------------------------------------\n\nOne of a number of similar items I am selling.
