A Son of the Rock

Martin Amis has died.

One of the Best Young British Novelists of that first 1983 edition, a stellar list which well lived up to the accolade.

Somehow or other, though, I have never got around to reading any of his books. Reviews of them failed to enthuse me.

I also swerved the TV adaptation of Money, its trailers did not entice me.

By all acounts the loss is mine.

Time’s Arrow, however, has been on my tbr list for years. I suppose I should get round to it.

Martin Louis Amis: 25/8/1949 – 19/5/2023. So it goes.
