Martin Amis's most highly regarded novel--a blackly comic murder
mystery about a murder that has not yet happened--in a full-cloth
hardcover edition with silk ribbon marker. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY
CONTEMPORARY CLASSICS.
First published twenty-five years ago in 1989, "London Fields" is
considered by many to be Amis's best novel. The narrator is an
American writer living in London who has had writer's block for
twenty years and is now terminally ill. The other main characters
are a bored and wealthy banker, a small-time criminal, and Nicola
Six, a young woman who knows she will be murdered a few minutes
after midnight on November 5, 1999, and who goes in search of her
killer. Set ten years in the future, against a backdrop of
environmental and social degradation and the looming threat of
world instability and nuclear war, this is a highly unusual mystery
with an unexpected twist at the end.
