@lonesomereader @TheBookerPrizes Unable to resist, I went onto Goodreads…I love the fact that the woman who gave “Standing Heavy“ the one star review you read, also gave Joseph Conrad‘s “heart of darkness“ one star… 😂

A fond goodnight to Martin Amis. A polarising novelist whose electrifying, blackly comic early novels - Other People, London Fields, and especially Money - brilliantly eviscerated an era, & whose acerbic essays in The Moronic Inferno are rapier-like. Few can boast as much.
