Amis, Martin(1949- )

Money

Exerpt from Money:

Money doesn't mind if we say it's evil, it goes from strength to strength. It's a fiction, an addiction, and a tacit conspiracy.


Summaries-

Everything is Permuted-Reading Matters - Well I couldn't agree more with the title of the site. Here you will find a number of books that have caught the fancy of the author of this site. This might give you an idea about the next book you'll read!

Critical Material-

The Marin Amis Web - This site features a large collection of literary essays written on Amis' novel. The essays collected here are a great way to help you understand Amis more fully.

Infography - This site features a gigantic bibliography for writer, Marin Amis. The whole thing is layed out well. The lists of reviews and interviews both look as though they would be interesting to explore.

Epinions - This is worthwhile site to visit. You can read comments made by others as well as post your own thoughts on the novel for others to read.

Geometry.net - This site provides links to a great deal of information related to both the novel and the author.

Spikemagizine.com - This page features a look at importance of names to works of fiction. If you have already read the book you know that John Self's name plays an important role. With this resource you can put this into context with other works with names playing a central role. Personally, I would like to see a bit on the names used in Evelyn Waugh's fiction.

uv.es - Here is an essay that provides in the site's own words, "A biographical sketch from the Introduction to Understanding Martin Amis". It's not directly related to Money but, it should give you a good deal of background on the author.
