Critics Review
London Fields, its pastoral title savagely inappropriate to its inner-city setting, vibrates, like all Amis’s work, with the force fields of sinister, destructive energies. At the core of its surreal fable are four figures locked in lethal alignment – Peter Kemp * Sunday Times *I love reading novels about the city but this is my favourite. It manages to incorporate the seedy and the middle class Notting Hill side of the capital, all in one glorious unputdownable novel – Phil Daniels * Daily Express *An electrifying writer who likes to shock his fans and share his sharply contemporary concerns… Amis is a maddening master you need to read - the best of his generation * Mail on Sunday *
