Riassunto

With film rights acquired by Francis Ford Coppola, this comic novel of instant riches is back in stock. From the author of A Clockwork Orange, One Hand Clapping is a comedy of game shows and greed, high stakes and the high life. The tragi-comedy of used car salesman Howard Shirley, his photographic brain, and the modern world's trivia and trivialities makes for vintage Burgessat once hilarious and provocative. "Witty and shrewdly joyful."The New York Times Book Review "A funny, pointed novel."The New Yorker "Ingeniously and devilishly funny."The Atlantic Monthly
