Synopsis
A prospective Japanese high-flyer called Akira Suzuki came to London for a little international polish. He pondered the litter and the unappealing food, he smiled politely at predictable motor-cycle jokes about his name (Brrm! Brrm!), and thought, so this is the famous British sense of humour.

Cloth. Condition: Fine. First Edition. Our hero, prospective Japanese high-flyer Akira Suzuki, comes to London for a little international polish. He ponders the litter and the unappealing food, he smiles politely at predictable motor-cycle jokes about his name (brrm! brrm!) and thinks, So this is the famous British sense of humour. He combines qualities, classical and modern, that are admired in Japan - but Suzuki gets the run-around. Seduced by two very different women, he inadvertently bursts into a world of Dockland penthouse and Mayfair club; and for one exquisitely embarrassing and erotic hour he is caught between two cultures. Only the incomparable Clive James could have devised such an instructive, deliciously funny and compelling ambush. Very slight shelf wear to top back corner of D/J. Seller Inventory # 022954
