Review
"Retired naval officer Charles Evans writes interestingly on Pinter in Russia. John Fowles provides the superb, three-paragraph "Afterword: Harold Pinter and Cricket." Including ten black-and-white illustrations and set in a clear typeface with sensible margins, this is a well-produced book." Choice
