Oh you meant World Federal-IST.
Sybil:

Basil:
Basil: Who's this, then, dear? Proust? E. M. Forster?
Sybil:
Harold Robbins
Basil:
Oh, of course, yes. My wife likes Harold Robbins. After a hard day's slaving
under the hair-dryer she needs to unwind with a few aimless thrills.
Sybil:Basil!
Basil:

America, but trans-Atlantic tripe. A sort of pornographic muzak. Still, it

Mr. Hamilton:
We both like him.
