Martin Amis RIP

[Darah Kehnemuyi]

 From Matt Bell's thread quoting Amis from 1994 ....
“But we inhabit the postmodern age, an age of mass suggestibility, in which image and reality strangely interact. This is now perhaps the most vulnerable area in the common mind. There is a hole in the credulity layer, and it is getting wider.”

Money, London Fields and Time’s Arrow probably his best novels, although I
have a few friends who love The Rachel Papers and who knows whether the new
Zone of Interest film will repopularise that novel (question for anyone in
the publishing industry:!did the Inherent Vice film make the source novel
TRP’s biggest selling novel of the last decade?)

I like Martin Amis as an essayist as well, even if I disagree with him if
he argues his point with style and brio. I have a well thumbed copy of The
Moronic Inferno.
