Back Cover:

"A brilliant and breathless performance. . .vintage Burgess. . . The whole performance stuns." -- The Boston Globe

"Readers will howl with laughter -- a wickedly amusing book." -- The Atlantic Monthly

"Resurrected by popular request. . . Enderby the poet stalks about in this fourth Enderby novel, the mouthpiece, as usual, of his author's concern for language and sardonic, sometimes sour appraisal of modern popular culture. . . Burgess displays the uncanny ear for dialect for which he is noted and, with customary bravado, opens and closes his story with Will Shakespeare himself." -- Publishers Weekly

"Enderby / Burgess is an absolutely hilarious and sage observer of people, language and life: There are at least a dozen moments in this short book which will make you laugh out loud." -- San Francisco Examiner-Chronicle

"Enderby is one of Burgess' funniest literary inventions, combining verbal virtuosity with world-class eccentricity." -- Houston Post

"Literate, funny and smart." -- Playboy

"Here is a writer who can make the plausible comic and the comic plausible. In the process he enriches our sense of what it means to enjoy life." -- San Diego Union
