FEW living writers excite as much opinion as Martin Amis. The English novelist, who turned 61 in August, has been the source of much attention since bursting onto the literary scene with his debut novel, The Rachel Papers, almost 40 years ago.
He is a rich topic for biography; indeed, he launched a preemptive strike in 2000 with his masterful memoir, Experience.
