First American Edition. An extraordinary novel that ratifies Martin Amis’s standing as 'a force unto himself. ' as The Washington Post has attested: 'There is. quite simply. no one else like him. 'House of Meetings is a love story. gothic in timbre and triangular in shape. In 1946. two brothers and a Jewish girl fall into alignment in pogrom-poised Moscow. The fraternal conflict then marinates in Norlag. a slave-labor camp above the Arctic Circle. where a tryst in the coveted House of Meetings will haunt all three lovers long after the brothers are released. And for the narrator. the sole survivor. the reverberations continue into the new century. An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dust wrapper. now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight. bright. clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new.; 241 pages; Description: 241 p. ; 23 cm.
