Money by Martin Amis
(Published by Penguin Books Ltd)
He has his detractors but this is probably Amis' best book. It concerns the
degenerate hedonism of an English film-maker trying to make it big in the Big
Apple. He reels from one social blunder and pointless one-night stand to
another in a haze of booze and drugs. It lambasts writers, actors and Hollywood
in a hilarious way and despite John Self's immorality, he's a loveable rogue.
