Complete Prose (Paperback, New edition)

Over 50 pieces from the author's three prose outings between 1971 and 1980 make up this collection. As you might expect, Allen's chief concerns revolve around matters cerebral: whether he is sending up Ibsen, parodying 19th-century spiritualist tracts or spinning a hard-boiled detective yarn that revolves around intellectual women selling their minds to men desperate for high-brow stimulation, Allen is hilarious. The great thing about much of the writing in this volume is the way he manages to reveal a deep understanding and affection for his targets, while simultaneously laying into them with sharp, punchy observations and a razor wit. Read it from cover to cover and you might hurt yourself giggling. (Kirkus UK)
