NEW MARTIN AMIS
“This remarkably tedious new novel by Martin Amis…” Awesome. If Kakutani hates it, there’s a pretty good chance I’ll love it. Only Liesl Schillinger, whose sour-smug review of Peter Hoeg’s magnificent The Quiet Girl breezily and speciously claimed its narrative “lurches toward pedophilia,” annoys me more as far as NY Times reviewers go. Can’t wait!
Another dispatch from the Axis of Who Gives a Shit? Michiko Kakutani’s s just not that into the new, apparently Poe-inspired E.L. Doctorow novel. To save everyone a lot of time and effort, I put MK’s thesis through the Translation Party engine that seemed to make everyone so happy when I posted about it last week.
Poe’s stories and complaints, his psychology, pathology Pejidokutoro for some new facts will be generated using a mixture of the first patent.
