About this title

Synopsis

London Fields is Amis's murder story for the end of the millennium. The murderee is Nicola Six, a "black hole" of sex and self-loathing intent on orchestrating her own extinction. The murderer may be Keith Talent, a violent lowlife whose only passions are pornography and darts. Or is the killer the rich, honorable, and dimly romantic Guy Clinch?

"A comic murder mystery, an apocalyptic satire, a scatological meditation on love and death and nuclear winter...by turns lyrical and obscene, colloquial and rhapsodic."--Michiko Kakutani, New York Times

From the Trade Paperback edition.

Store Description

I specialize in reasonably priced modern and hyper-modern first editions, primarily fiction with the odd non fiction title mixed in. I cater to collectors of all levels with added emphasis on first time collectors and those just starting to build their libraries. I realize a single book can bring a life time of joy.
