MARTIN AMIS ON KINGSLEY AMIS: "He used to get panic-attack nightmares. Nightmares followed by panic-attacks. And my mother would bring him in to see me. And I would talk about what I'd done at school. And it would calm him down."

Pretty neat encapsulation of modern Britain. Remind me not to move back there...

Pleasing to hear Martin talk about Kingsley. He doesn't talk about him often. Kingsley's novels are great- I suggest that everyone read them.

1:23 Charlie goes "So your father's death stood between you and this book?" -quite a stunningly crass and insensitive phrasing. Interrupts Amis with it too, jeez.

You are an absolute moron. Fuck off

@ph03n1xamb1t ha ha ha ha! what a boring twat

@ryko26

Pointing out typographical oversights does not make you wise. Also, you are a moronic cunt.

@ph03n1xamb1t "Also [no comma] you are an illiterate moron."

Twat.

@ryko26

It makes perfect grammatical and syntactical sense. If you cannot comprehend it, the deficiency is with you. Also you are an illiterate moron.

[ryko26]

@ph03n1xamb1t no, that doesn't make much sense either. Not very bright are you?

Moronic little fuckwit of a cunt.
