'Terribly, terminally funny: laughter in the dark, if ever I heard it' Guardian
Klappentext zu „Money “
Inventive, and thrillingly savage, a tale of a life lived without restraint, of money and the terrible things it can do and the disasters it can precipitate.Autoren-Porträt von Martin Amis
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.

Rezension zu „Money “
"Amis is still the finest English fiction writer of his generation" Sunday Independent "An electrifying writer who likes to shock his fans and share his sharply contemporary concerns... Amis is a maddening master you need to read - the best of his generation" Mail on Sunday "Amis is immaculate as a comic stylist...irresistible" Daily Telegraph "His eloquently rendered inner life shows a richness and tenderness" The Week "A comic opera of excess and humiliation, driven by the punch and panache of Amis's extraordinary prose, Money remains as satirically spot-on as when it was first published" The List
