Stanley Duke se adentra en la edad madura con una vida aparentemente tranquila, hasta que su hijo Steve desarrolla una enfermedad mental. A partir de ese momento, Stanley se encuentra asediado por las mujeres de su entorno: su exesposa Nowell, una actriz dramática; su actual esposa Susan, una escritora poco comprensiva; la madre de Susan, una esnob; y Trish Collings, una psiquiatra manipuladora que insinúa que Stanley es el culpable de la esquizofrenia de su hijo. Esta comedia negra de Kingsley Amis explora la locura, el alcohol, el sur de Londres, el thatcherismo y la guerra de los sexos.
Sir Kingsley William Amis was an English novelist, poet, critic and teacher. He wrote more than 20 novels, six volumes of poetry, a memoir, short stories, radio and television scripts, and works of social and literary criticism. He is best known for satirical comedies such as Lucky Jim (1954), One Fat Englishman (1963), Ending Up (1974), Jake's Thing (1978) and The Old Devils (1986). His biographer Zachary Leader called Amis "the finest English comic novelist of the second half of the twentieth century." In 2008, The Times ranked him ninth on a list of the 50 greatest British writers since 1945. He was the father of the novelist Martin Amis. Amis was knighted in 1990.
