Beschreibung

'Before we face experience, that miserable enemy, let us have some more innocence, just for a while....'INTRODUCED BY ZADIE SMITHIn this masterwork of literary memoir, Martin Amis tells the stories of his life, both the ordinary and the outlandish - from his bohemian childhood, through fame, fatherhood and divorce, to the news of a cousin brutally murdered, the agonising removal of all his teeth, the discovery of a long-lost daughter and, most poignantly, the death of his father, and fellow novelist Kingsley Amis. ONE OF THE GUARDIAN'S 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE 21st CENTURY'Martin Amis is a seriously good writer, and never on better form than now. Experience, the book of his life, may be the book of his life' Daily Telegraph

Portrait

Martin Amis was twenty-three when he wrote his first novel, The Rachel Papers (1973). Over the next half century - in fourteen more novels, two collections of short stories, eight works of literary criticism and reportage, and his acclaimed memoir, Experience - he established himself as the most distinctive and influential prose stylist of his generation. To many of his readers, Amis was also the funniest. His intoxicating comedic gifts express a profound understanding of the human experience, particularly its most shocking cruelties, and Amis wrote with pathos and verve on an astonishing range of subjects, from masculinity and movie violence to nuclear weapons and Nazi doctors. His books, which have been translated into thirty-eight languages, provide an indelible portrait and critique of late-capitalist society at the turn of the twenty-first century. He died in 2023.
