  Written in one of the few unmistakenly literary voices of our time, Amis' Memoirs have already created a furor in England. Amis writes without inhibition about Roald Dahl, Anthony Burgess, Francis Bacon, Malcolm Muggeridge, and many others. Amis' memiors are rich, hilarious, and wicked--written with tremendous verve about Oxford, the literary life, and Mrs, Thatcher--and give us a completely unvarnished portrait of him.

From his childhood days to Oxford and army life, his travels abroad and his years as a successful novelist, Memoirs offers extraordinary insights into a unique literary life.
