  Ken, so far not loving "Lucky Jim".  It's engaging after a fashion, and the writing is good, of course, but its one of those books where the main character is a guy of weak character with a propensity to be a loser.  He keeps doing stupid things that throw him into embarrassing and awkward situations. I'm not finding it fun or funny, but maybe I just need to get further into it.
It's all good...

Actually it is quite a weak book. Not worth reading.

I imagined that much by reading the title.   :)

Few days ago I saw a translation into Spanish... maybe I should purchase it.

I liked the movie, especially the superb soundtrack recorded by Savall.  :)
