Review:
Book Description:
'A book of brilliant energies, a comedy of enraged passions. Amis's writing shares the grandeur of the big American writers.' Malcolm Bradbury, The Times
‘No one can hold a candle to Martin Amis.’ Val Hennessy, Daily Mail
‘A funny, vicious portrait of literary London.’ Evening Standard
‘Any other writer would kill to reach this high style. Amis can stroll the heights at his leisure – the writing is on fire.’ Allison Pearson
‘Martin Amis is an iconic figure. He cracks out memorable sentences like a ringmaster in the circus of the grotesque. He is the good-looking bad guy of late-twentieth-century Eng Lit – faster on the phrase than any of the other inky cowboys on the streets.’ Melvyn Bragg
'No-one can hold a candle to Martin Amis' Daily Mail
