Treasure trove and a joy to re-readBy Alfred J. KwakThis 1987 selection of writings by a young Martin Amis (MA) about the USA has been kept in print; and rightly so. It is a delightful collection of his journalistic articles published between 1977 and 1985; corrected; rewritten and provided with afterwords when needed. Most articles concerned his favourite writers; many dead now. Only Philip Roth and Hugh Hefner (not a writer; founder of “Playboy”) are still among us. Its title comes from Nobel Prize-winner Saul Bellow. MA’s essays about his work and worldview bracket this collection like sturdy bookstands.Few readers will read every piece about the US writers; iconic Americans (Presley; Reagan); weird venues (Palm Beach) or pressing issues (AIDS) presented. Some entries are 1.200 word reviews; others lengthier and better documented. MAs best portraits display deep research plus an interview with the main subject. His best pieces (on e.g. Kurt Vonnegut; Norman Mailer; Saul Bellow ) cannot be ignored by today’s students of literature. His piece on AIDS (1985) was courageous and hard-hitting; and was well received in gay and medical circles after publication. Highly recommended.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good times during the age of discoBy TriplicateBrilliant reading this; 30 years later. Norman Mailer; Gore Vidal; William Burroughs; Hugh Hefner are all dead now. No one pierces the egoistical veil of "great" men with the tongue in cheek of Mr. Amis. He's insightful; accurate; sensitive; brutal; and forgiving. Had fun remembering those days.Oh this mortal coil; that screws us all.
