Synopsis
Only When I Larf is a late 1960s British comic thriller describing the activities of a team of three fictional confidence tricksters led by Silas Lowther (late 40s), his girlfriend Liz Mason (late 20s) and wannabe apprentice and Liz-worshipper Bob (early 20s). The novel dates from Len Deighton's experimental period after the three Harry Palmer books and was published in 1968 by Michael Joseph and in paperback by Sphere. It is currently (2007) out of print.
