Martin Amis at Edinburgh International Book Festival (edbookfest)

Laughing in the Face of Evil



Join one of Britain’s most influential writers for this keynote event. The last time Martin Amis wrote about the Holocaust was in 1991 in his novel Time’s Arrow. Now he returns to the subject in a brand new and much-anticipated novel, The Zone of Interest. Amis succeeds in finding moments of unexpected comedy as love blossoms in a Nazi concentration camp.
