Description
* Martin Amis - Complete Fiction, Essays and Non-Fiction (28 books)
MARTIN AMIS (1949 – 2023) was an English novelist, essayist, memoirist, and screenwriter known for his virtuoso storytelling technique and his dark views of contemporary English society. The son of the novelist Kingsley Amis, he was one of the best-known public intellectuals of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Amis's first novel was THE RACHEL PAPERS (1973), the tale of a young antihero preoccupied with his health, his sex life, and his efforts to get into Oxford. His first major critical success was MONEY (1984), a savagely comic satire of the conspicuous consumerism of the 1980s. LONDON FIELDS (1989) is an ambitious work set in 1999 in which a number of small-scale interpersonal relationships take place amid a society on the verge of apocalyptic collapse. His other major work of this period is TIME'S ARROW (1991), which inverts traditional narrative order to describe the life of a Nazi war criminal from death to birth. Other novels of the first decades of his literary career included DEAD BABIES (1974), SUCCESS (1978), OTHER PEOPLE (1981), THE INFORMATION (1995), and NIGHT TRAIN (1997).
His short-story collection EINSTEIN'S MONSTERS (1987) finds stupidity and horror in a world filled with nuclear weapons. The forced-labour camps under Soviet leader Joseph Stalin are the subject of both the nonfiction KOBA THE DREAD (2002) and the novel HOUSE OF MEETINGS (2006). In his novel THE PREGNANT WIDOW (2010), Amis examined the sexual revolution of the 1970s and its repercussions on a group of friends who lived through it. The pop culture indictment LIONEL ASBO: STATE OF ENGLAND (2012) chronicles the vicissitudes of a fictional small-time criminal and his upstanding nephew after the former wins the lottery and becomes a fixture in the tabloid press. THE ZONE OF INTEREST (2014) revisits the Holocaust themes explored in Time's Arrow. The "novelized autobiography" INSIDE STORY (2020) centres on his relationships with the writers Philip Larkin, Saul Bellow, and Christopher Hitchens.
Among his volumes of essays are THE MORONIC INFERNO, AND OTHER VISITS TO AMERICA (1986), VISITING MRS. NABOKOV, AND OTHER EXCURSIONS (1993), THE WAR AGAINST CLICHÉ (2001), and THE RUB OF TIME: BELLOW, NABOKOV, HITCHENS, TRAVOLTA, TRUMP. ESSAYS AND REPORTAGE, 1994-2016 (2017). His autobiography, EXPERIENCE (2000), was acclaimed for an emotional depth and profundity, and won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize.
For the Amis "completist", this collection also includes what one critic deemed "the madwoman in the attic of Amis’ house of nonfiction": INVASION OF THE SPACE INVADERS (1982), a (now rare) guide to arcade video games of the 1970s and 1980s, which the author was later reluctant to discuss and allowed to go out of print.
Martin Amis died from oesophageal cancer on May 19, 2023.
