Frank, the narrator, is a middle-aged civil servant, intelligent,
acerbic, self-righteous, angry. He is in love with Johnny, a young,
married, working-class man with a sweetly easygoing nature. When
Johnny is sent to prison for committing a petty theft, Frank gets
caught up in a struggle with Johnny's wife and parents for access
to him. Their struggle finds a strange focus in Johnny's dog-a
beautiful but neglected German shepherd named Evie. And it is she,
in the end, who becomes the improbable and undeniable guardian of
Frank's inner world. We Think the World of You is known for its
extraordinary mixture of acute social realism and dark fantasy, and
was described by J. R. Ackerley himself as "a fairy tale for
adults."
