      anyone some recomendation regards british publications of the above type ? From the sixties ? Sixties generation stuff as well a conventional autors of that period (kind of 'Alec Guiness style' writers, educated but hilarious stuff ;-)

      Any hints ? Light hearthed intelligent literatur ? 

      Most appreciated!

      Of course this is much earlier than the '60's but you can't go wrong with P.G. Wodehouse. More contemporary is Stephen Fry's "The Hippopotamus". And if you are willing to consider writers of a more Irish persuasion I would suggest J.P. Donleavy, specifically "The Ginger Man", just be sure to get the unexpurgated version. Cheers.
