Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With film rights acquired by Francis Ford Coppola, this comic novel of instant riches is back in stock. From the author of A Clockwork Orange, One Hand Clapping is a comedy of game shows and greed, high stakes and the high life. The tragi-comedy of used car salesman Howard Shirley, his photographic brain, and the modern world's trivia and trivialities makes for vintage Burgess--at once hilarious and provocative. "Witty and shrewdly joyful."--The New York Times Book Review "A funny, pointed novel."--The New Yorker "Ingeniously and devilishly funny."--The Atlantic Monthly
