Review:
"Amis's backwards world is rigorously imagined. It is a world of pathos and cruel hilarity...but the crux, the test of his vision, is what he does with Auschwitz." -- "Guardian" "Extraordinary...Ironic inversion is essentially a comic device, but its trickery here yields results that are rigorously grave." -- "Independent on Sunday" "Amis's most daring and ambitious novel." -- "Daily Telegraph"
About the Author:
Martin Amis is the best-selling author of several books, including London Fields, Money, The Information, and, most recently, Experience. He lives in London.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this icy, knifes-edge story of a life that progresses backward through time, unfolding into one of the darkest episodes of the 20th century, Amis (at his intriguing, heedful, and powerful best Time Out), finds a chillingly original approach to the Holocaust in fiction From the acclaimed author of Zone of Interest"The narrative moves with irresistible momentum. [Amis is] a daring, exacting writer willing to defy the odds in pursuit of his art." Newsday Tod. T. Friendly is living his life in reverse. Doctor Friendly has just died, but he moves out of blackest sleep to find himself surrounded by doctors and on the deathbed of a man in whose body he is imprisoned. After weeks of improving in the hospital, he is sent home to his affable, melting-pot, primary-colors existence in suburban America.As Friendly breaks up with his lovers in a prelude to seducing them and mangles his patients before he sends them home, his life races backward toward the one appalling moment in modern history when such reversals make sense. From the fresh-cut lawns of his retirement to the hustle of New York, and then back to the boat which reverses his course to the war-torn Europe Friendly came from, Amis brings the steeliest nerve to the job of realizing the novels inevitable logic. Trapped in his body from grave to cradle, Friendlys consciousness can only watch as he struggles to make sense of the good doctors most ambitious project yetthe final solution. "A novel that seems to have been written with the term 'tour de force' in mind . . . Amis's radical rethinking of time . . . brings the abomination of the Holocaust home to the jaded late-20th-century reader in a way that few conventional novels could". Village Voice Literary Supplement. "Splendid . . . bold . . . gripping from start to finish".--Los Angeles Times Book Review.
