Martin Amis Press Reviews

'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 Auschwit'z - Guardian

'The devastatingly sustained black irony stands comparison with Swift's A Modest Proposal. It is, I think, Amis's finest achievement to date' - Financial Times

'Extraordinary - Ironic inversion is essentially a comic device, but its trickery here yields results that are rigorously grave' - Independent on Sunday

'An icy, hard read - Amis is at his intriguing, powerful and heedful best' - Time Out

'Amis's most daring and ambitious novel' - Daily Telegraph
