`Truly There is almost no situation that Harford cannot dissect with his sharp economist`s economics has never been this cool` NEW STATESMAN If humans are so clever, why do we smoke and gamble, or take drugs, or fall in love? Is this really rational behaviour? And how come your idiot boss is so overpaid? In fact, the behaviour of even the unlikeliest of individuals - prostitutes, drug addicts, racists and revolutionaries - complies with economic logic, taking into account future costs and benefits, even if we don`t quite realise it. We are rational beings after all.

Art, reality and the strange ways the two imitate one another are at the core of Muriel Spark`s delightful Loitering with Intent, first published in 1981. Would-be novelist Fleur Talbot works for the snooty, irascible Sir Quentin Oliver at the Autobiographical Association, whose members are all at work on their memoirs. When her employer gets his hands on Fleur`s novel-in-progress, mayhem ensues when its scenes begin coming true. Generating hilarious turns of phrase and larger-than-life characters (especially Sir Quentin`s batty mother), Spark`s inimitable style make this literary joyride thoroughly appealing.
