Something to Answer For Something to Answer For Something to Answer For is a 1968 novel by the English writer P. H. Newby. Its chief claim to fame is that in 1969 it won the inaugural Booker Prize, which would go on to become one of the major literary awards in the English-speaking world. It was reissued by Faber & Faber in 2008 in the "Faber Finds" line, in 2011 as paperback and in 2018. Townrow is a Fund Distributor stealing from the fund he is in charge of.

H. P. Lovecraft (band) Ken Nordine, on the track "Nothing's Boy", and two songs written by Edwards' friend Terry Callier: "Spin, Spin, Spin" and "It's About Time". Like the band's first album, "H. P. Lovecraft II" failed to sell in sufficient quantities to reach the U.S. charts. Michaels decided to leave the band in late 1968, to return to university, and as a result, H. P. Lovecraft effectively collapsed in early 1969, with Tegza joining the band Bangor Flying Circus. A successor group, Lovecraft, was formed in 1969 and included Edwards and Tegza from the original line-up, although Edwards departed from the group soon
