Summary
A rousing and uproarious novel of the life, loves, and misadventures of a working-class rogue, "Saturday Night/Sunday Morning "marked the arrival of one of the most cherished authors in the twenty-first century. At twenty-two years of age, Arthur Seaton is a hard-drinking lathe operator in a bicycle factory. Sharp, rowdy, and attractive, he is a lover of life in the raw, and his enormous vitality comes pouring through, at a family party, at the county fair, and in several pubs he haunts on Saturday nights, where more often than not he leaves with a woman on his arm. Before long, however, his devil may care life-style gets him into some serious trouble, and Arthur's life takes a turn that not even he could have imagined.
