That's the motto of Arthur Seaton - Britain's original Angry Young Man. Arthur punches the clock at a Nottingham steel factory, waiting for Saturday night when he explodes a week's worth of pent-up passions in outrageous drinking bouts, pub-clearning brawls and encounters with other men's wives. He is determined to escape the clutches of anyone who would hold him down, keeping his wry humor intact and thumbing his nose at the Establishment. Sunday morning's hangover does nothing to dull Arthur's piercing insight into his own situation. He knows that come what may, no matter what, he won't go down without a fight. Brutally honest and wickedly funny, this groundbreaking novel of British working-class life by the author of The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner, simmer with vitality, lust, and humor and remains as compelling today as it was when first published.]]> 41121 3.80 688 67 1959 459194 0586065172 9780586065174 1 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/459194.A_Start_in_Life 3.90 10 41121 3.80 688 67 1970 3121132 0333029046 9780333029046 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3121132.The_Death_of_William_Posters 4.00 7 41121 3.80 688 67 1969 577375 0006493068 9780006493068 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175961243m/577375.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175961243s/577375.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/577375.Collected_Stories 4.50 4 41121 3.80 688 67 1995 101147 078671476X 9780786714766 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171476470m/101147.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171476470s/101147.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/101147.New_and_Collected_Stories_of_Alan_Sillitoe 4.50 4 New and Collected Stories brings together more than forty pieces of short fiction, encompassing Sillitoe’s entire career, and includes several previously unpublished stories.
