Book Review: Yellow Dog by Martin Amis

Wednesday July 7, 2004
Martin Amis is no stranger to the nittier and grittier walks of life. Amis's novels are filled with sex, drugs, and violence, and is an expert at creating despicable characters for whom you can't help but feeling a little bit sympathetic.

His latest novel, Yellow Dog, should please fans of his morbid sense of humor, layered storytelling, and uniquely descriptive language.

Read Michael O'Connor's review of Yellow Dog by Martin Amis.
