This is a prodigiously rich and allusive book … We haven't been exposed to such a Rabelaisian gusto of language… if you want to claim that you have lived through this century, that you think you 'understand' its peculiar English seas, its psychological immensities – not least those of self-deception – here is your book. |
|
Other text | Complex and playful, joyous and devastating, something as downright relevant as the tip of your nose … Still is actually a film in fiction. It's as bright and disjointed as The Waste Land. |
