Girl, 20 es una novela del autor británico Kingsley Amis, publicada en 1971. La historia sigue a Sir Roy Vandervane, un anciano compositor y director de orquesta inglés, que combina los roles de eterno libertino e incurable progresista. Su némesis y amante es la terrible Sylvia, de 17 años, que representa en su repulsiva persona todo lo menos atractivo de la juventud contemporánea. A través de una narrativa humorística y crítica, Amis examina la sociedad británica de la posguerra, explorando temas de desilusión y las tensiones entre generaciones.
Sir Kingsley William Amis was an English novelist, poet, critic and teacher. He wrote more than 20 novels, six volumes of poetry, a memoir, short stories, radio and television scripts, and works of social and literary criticism. He is best known for satirical comedies such as Lucky Jim (1954), One Fat Englishman (1963), Ending Up (1974), Jake's Thing (1978) and The Old Devils (1986). His biographer Zachary Leader called Amis "the finest English comic novelist of the second half of the twentieth century." In 2008, The Times ranked him ninth on a list of the 50 greatest British writers since 1945. He was the father of the novelist Martin Amis. Amis was knighted in 1990.
