 | Billy Liar (1959) (The first book in the Billy Liar series) A novel by Keith Waterhouse |
When Keith Waterhouse?s comic novel Billy Liar was first published in 1959, rave reviews compared it to Kingsley Amis' Lucky Jim, Colin MacInnes's Absolute Beginners, J D Salinger's Catcher in the Rye, and other 'youth cult novels'. Billy Liar is a regional comedy about a youth who attempts to escape his dull family life through fantasy.
