    Martin Amis's views on Russian history, or really on anything except the art of fiction, are not worth attending to.https://twitter.com/rauchway/status/922151265982758912 …

    Why can’t Martin Amis explain how bad the USSR was without also trying to minimize Nazism? https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/16/books/review/martin-amis-lenin-russian-revolution.html?_r=0 …

        Come for the self consciously “literary” tics like the ill conceived etymology of “tragedy!” Stay for the Nazi apologia!

        No, because he treats everything like it’s one of his novels and that he gets to decide it always means what he says.

        This article I have, yes. A few other very, very bad articles like this one. And a couple of his novels which were not bad.
