A modern-day Jacobean revenge comedy that soars with malicious poetry-from "the Mick Jagger of literature [and] the most dazzling prose stylist in post-war British fiction" ( The Daily Telegraph ). In Success Amis pens a mismatched pair of foster brothers-one "a quivering condom of neurosis and ineptitude," the other a "bundle of contempt, vanity and stock-response"-in a single London flat. He binds them with ties of class hatred, sexual rivalry, and disappointed love, and throws in a disloyal girlfriend and a spectacularly unstable sister.
