Description
London Fields: A Black Comedy of Murder and Deception In this darkly comedic murder mystery, Martin Amis explores a world on the brink of collapse. Set against a backdrop of environmental decay and social unrest, the story follows Nicola Six as she attempts to orchestrate her own extinction. With a complex web of relationships and motivations, Nicola's plan is fraught with danger and uncertainty. As the millennium approaches, Nicola's choices become increasingly desperate, leading her to consider two very different options for her demise. Meanwhile, Samson Young, a writer struggling with his own creative block, becomes entangled in this complex and twisted narrative. With its unexpected twist at the end, London Fields is a corrosively funny and scalding moral vision of a world on the edge. This hardcover edition marks the 25th anniversary of Amis's acclaimed novel, now re-released with its characteristic wit and pyrotechnic complexity.
