Reviews with the most likes.
I absolutely adore him. Man from the south, Taste, Dip in the poil, Skin, Lamb to the slaughter, Galloping Foxley, The way up to heaven, Parsons pleasures, the landlady, Mrs Bixby and the colonel's coat, Genesis, The bookseller. All these stories are so vivid they could easily translate into movies in my head.
One of my favourite stories: ‰ЫПGeorgy Porgy‰Ыќ, which sent me into a fit of laughter:
‰ЫПThe mouth kept getting larger and larger, and then all at once it was right on top of me, huge and wet and cavernous, and the next second‰ЫУI was inside it. / I was right inside this enormous mouth, lying on my stomach along the length of the tongue, with my feet somewhere around the back of the throat.‰Ыќ
