In Success Amis pens a mismatched pair of foster brothers--one 'a quivering condom of neurosis and ineptitude,' the other a 'bundle of contempt, vanity and stock-response'--in a single London flat. He binds them with ties of class hatred, sexual rivalry, and disappointed love, and throws in a disloyal girlfriend and a spectacularly unstable sister to create a modern-day Jacobean revenge comedy that soars with malicious poetry.
