Kingsley Amis

An interesting article here abut his short stories:

The complete short stories are available for Kindle, but fairly pricey. Nowadays his son Martin may be better known, but Kingsley was a literary lion of his day. He was a very close friend of the poet Philip Larkin. They first met as undergraduates at Oxford and met frequently and corresponded thereafter.
