If ever you feel frivolous or puerile in shorts, remember that Amis wrote one of his best novels in a pair.
Where are you on Tuesday 25th August?
If you're in London, there's only one sensible plan of action: After Amis, the second annual @mymartinamis event, where we take Bloomsbury and Soho in one fell swoop.
We'll be launching The Cambridge Companion to #martinamis with the editor @GavinKeulks, @JimDiedrickATL and the volume's other fantastic contributors, afterwards heading into Soho for a keynote speech delivered by @wself and a live recorded episode of the podcast.

Another contributor profile for the forthcoming Cambridge Companion to Martin Amis: Today's spotlight is scholar Nick Bentley, who discusses all three novels in Amis's celebrated London Trilogy: Money, London Fields, and The Information.
For many readers, these novels acted as gateway drugs to Amis's work -- with good reason (and much fanfare).
Dr. Bentley will be appearing with me and 7 other panelists at our London launch event on August 25th. We would love to see you there.
