Of all the great novelists writing today, none shows the same gift
as Martin Amis for writing non-fiction - his essays, literary
criticism and journalism are justly acclaimed. The Rub of Time
comprises superb critical pieces on Amis's heroes Nabokov, Bellow
and Larkin to brilliantly funny ruminations on sport, Las Vegas,
John Travolta and the pornography industry. The collection includes
his essay on Princess Diana and a tribute to his great friend
Christopher Hitchens, but at the centre of the book, perhaps
inevitably, are essays on politics, and in particular the American
election campaigns of 2012 and 2016. One of the very few
consolations of Donald Trump's rise to power is that Martin Amis is
there to write about him.
