Eric Ambler - not read them all, those I have yeah, no stinkers but then, no masterpieces either - always thought of him as Greene's underachieving brother .....

Will Self - Love him when he's good (Sweet smell of Psychosis, My Idea of Fun, Scale) but Great Apes was a second rate short story stretched out to a novel, I never finished 'The Book of Dave' and some of his short fiction is distinctly 'Sixth Form creative writing' (Flytopia).

I'd propose Thomas Pynchon. James Joyce would qualify if it wasn't for the unreadable Finnegans Wake.

Greene's first book A Man Within is pretty ghastly, read about half his books and there is not another bad one. Human Factor is my favourite book.

Great Apes is one of my favourites of his and The Book of Dave, although hard going at first was a good read

Is there a reason you picked on Flytopia?

Roger Hargreaves.

Well, OK, most were good but I think he peaked with Mr Bump.
