According to The New Republic, “Like Joyce and Nabokov, Amis trades in mysteries, in riddles, in revelations half-offered in quasi-cryptic language… Sentence by sentence, Amis still writes some of the keenest prose in English today.” His new novel, Lionel Asbo: State of England, is forthcoming in Summer 2012 from Knopf.
