Rezension zu „House of Meetings “
"This novella is the best thing Martin Amis has done in fiction for years: very complex, very forceful, startling in the amount of ground it covers, and densely and intelligently put together" -- Sam Leith Literary Review "An ambitious feat...the result is brilliant" -- Catherine Merridale Independent "It is difficult not to be impressed by this compact tour de force... Amis has produced a memorable novel and a memorable protagonist" -- Toby Lichtig Observer "A singular, unimpeachable triumph" The Economist "Unmistakably Amis's best novel since London Fields...a slender, moving novel, streaked with dark comedy" -- Robert Macfarlane Sunday Times
