"Allan Sillitoe's second book, a collection of short stories, confirms the impression of some of us who think that Mr. Sillitoe is one of the best English writers of the day....He speaks, with a kind of nihilism, yet with a strange affirmation, of the native loneliness and rebellion of the purse animal self, the nodal center of life. It is the sharpening up of this voice into a clear-cut view of life that makes this new book so remarkable."Sillitoe, Alan is the author of 'Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner ', published 1992 under ISBN 9780452269088 and ISBN 0452269083.
