Not great AN Wilson but any AN Wilson is better than most.

I have to agree with the New Jersey reviewer but I'd still give it 5 stars. The earlier Lampitts are better. I find it interesting that Anthony Powell also nodded when he tried to bring his "Music of Time" characters into the 60's. The gurus and hippies could not be satirized as easily, or had to be satirized in a different way. Esther Freud's "Hideous Kinky" does a better job on them.
