No Laughing Matter

(1967)
A novel by

 
 
This is Wilson's most ambitious novel, a saga covering fifty years of the Matthews family. Departs from his earlier realist style, 'mingling parody and dramatization with direct narration in a rich and complex evocation of family politics and neuroses'. A comprehensive and critical , but nonetheless sympathetic, treatment of English cultural assumptions.
