The Ginger Man - J. P. Donleavy

But Jesus, when you don't have any money, the problem is food. When you have money, it's sex. When you have both it's health, you worry about getting rupture or something. If everything is simply jake then you're frightened of death.

The Ginger Man, 1955
J. P. Donleavy (1923 - )
