Reviews
"A real writer, with the true comic spirit. A really funny book."-James Joyce "This is just the book to give your sister if she's a loud, dirty, boozy girl!"-Dylan Thomas At Swim-Two-Birds has remained in my mind ever since it first appeared as one of the best books of our century. A book in a thousand . . . in the line of Ulysses and Tristram Shandy."-Graham Greene
