Take a Girl Like You es una novela del autor británico Kingsley Amis, publicada en 1960. La historia sigue a Jenny Bunn, una joven del norte de Inglaterra que se muda al sur para trabajar como maestra. Allí conoce a Patrick Standish, un arrogante profesor que se obsesiona con ella. La novela explora temas como el choque cultural, las relaciones de género y la lucha por la independencia femenina. Con un estilo humorístico y perspicaz, Amis retrata las complejidades de la sociedad británica de la época y los desafíos que enfrentan las mujeres en la búsqueda de su propia identidad.

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.
