A New York Review Books Classic.
J R Ackerley's only novel is, like all his work, remarkable for its unconventionality and its power to surprise. 'My Father And Myself' and 'My Dog Tulip', revealed the fantasies that had shaped the facts of Ackerley's life. 'We Think The World Of You' tells a subtle, funny, ultimately devastating story about bitterness and desire, and the disappointment that can hide behind a mask of fulfillment.
