ReviewsAllison Pearson, Independent on Sunday...
"Any other writer would kill to reach this high style. Amis can stroll the heights at his leisure – the writing is on fire"
Malcolm Bradbury, The Times...
"This is a book of brilliant energies, a comedy of the enraged passions, and a comedy of humiliation. The Information sparkles with Amis's distinctive rage, disgust, stylistic observation, language... Amis admires the big American writers. His writing shares their grandeur"
