Description
[Read by Steven Pacey]
London Fields is Martin Amis' murder story for the end of the millennium.
The murderee is Nicola Six, a ''black hole'' of sex and self-loathing who is intent on orchestrating her own extinction. The murderer may be Keith Talent, a violent lowlife whose only passions are pornography and darts, or the rich, honorable, and dimly romantic Guy Clinch. As Nicola leads her suitors towards the precipice, London -- and, indeed, the whole world -- seems to shamble after them in a corrosively funny novel of complexity and morality.
