Description
Book Synopsis
With a new introduction by Jeff VanderMeer, this powerful collection of five short stories explores the dangers of nuclear warfare--written by the renowned author of Money and London Fields..
An ex-circus strongman meets his own personal holocaust and "Einsteinian" destiny; maximum boredom and minimum lovemaking are advised in a 2020 epidemic; a virulent new strain of schizophrenia overwhelms the young son of a "father of the nuclear age"; and an immortal being reminisces on the creation--and destruction--of the earth and humankind. In Einstein's Monsters, an inventive collection of linked stories, Martin Amis presents a grotesque, inspired, unsettling vision of a world terrorized by the unthinkable but nonetheless urgent threat of nuclear warfare.About the Author
