‘The Green Man’ takes place in an inn between London and Cambridge; the inn dates back to the fourteenth century and is haunted by one of the previous owners from the seventeenth century. An unusual work by Kingsley Amis, a departure from his previous works which this being described as three genres in one – ghost story, moral fable, and comic novel.
