Powell,Neil Amis & Son - Two Literary Generations Pan Macmillan 2008 140505462X / 9781405054621 1st Edition, 1st Printing Hardcover New New Multiple copies available this title. Two of the most successful British novelists of the last fifty years, Kingsley and Martin Amis are both known for their savage wit and their indifference to causing controversy. In his critical biography, Neil Powell looks at the careers of these two very divisive, and hugely talented writers: how they were formed by their upbringings, developed as writers and in turn how they affected literature, and each other. He examines how success (which is the title one of Martin Amis' novels) affected their relationship, and themselves as writers (Kingsley: "Martin's spending a year abroad for tax purposes. 29, he is. Little shit."). Through this we see what it has meant to be a man, and a writer, (and, most importantly, a comic writer) in Britain over the last sixty years, following Kinglsey from jazz-loving iconoclast to Thatcher-loving Tory and Martin from wild young man of letters to God knows what. Quantity Available: 10. Category: Biography & Autobiography; ISBN/EAN: 9781405054621. Inventory No: 10012053. Hardcover Price:
