Sorry, dear American Littens, I couldn't resist the title. It actually has some good essays (the title is from Saul Bellow). I might dip into it tonight... 🇺🇸

#happybirthday Martin Amis. No one points out the absurdity of US hero worship quite like Amis. Many of these essays are from the 1980s, but his interview range is extreme. Amis observes the bizarre in them all - from Reagan to Hefner. Half the essays in this collection critique authors, including Vonnegut. The title is borrowed from Saul Bellows, and in the half of the book that doesn't focus on reviews, the title is very apt. #writerbirthday
