Book Overview

by Martin Amis (Author), Jeff VanderMeer (Introduction by)

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 the five inventive stories collected in Einstein's Monsters, Martin Amis presents a grotesque, inspired, unsettling vision of a world terrorized by the threat of nuclear warfare and other unthinkable forms of extinction.
