KINGSLEY AMIS
"Any proper writer ought to be able to write about anything." Birthplace

London, England
Education
City of London; St John's, Oxford
Other jobs
Academic (though his thesis on Victorian poetry was rejected), army officer, critic
Did you know? He produced a particularly violent James Bond novel, Colonel Sun, in 1968, under the pseudonym Robert Markham. Critical verdict A prodigious output was achieved by an unflinching schedule of 500 words each day. His public perception developed from angry young man in the 50s to reactionary old fogey in the 80s; he, and a critical minority, took issue with both stereotypes. He received the Booker Prize (The Old Devils) in 1986, plus a CBE and knighthood for services to literature. Recommended works The youthful and enthusiastic Lucky Jim is a cogent reminder of how much the English novel has changed, as well as being instrumental in its transformation; The Old Devils a bitterly funny (and vice versa) controlled tour de force.

St. Martin's/Thomas Dunne, $23.95 (0-312-18601-0). DDC: 423. Entertaining is not normally a word reserved for usage manuals. Leave it to the late Amis (he died in 1995 at age 73) to deliver a style manual laced with witty, acerbic commentary" It is not necessary to be bored by the novels of E. M. Forster as much as I am in order to be fed up with a couple of slogans he started on their course." When not delivering his roundhouse punches (e.g., on the use of prepositions at the ends of sentences: "This is one of those fancied prohibitions dear to ignorant slobs"), Amis waxes passionate on all manner of the arcane topics close to language lovers' hearts. He tackles terms such as suckling pig (he prefers sucking pig ) and pounces on Fowler for his failure to distinguish between beer and ale . He is extremely sensitive to nuance and objects strenuously to "the impious and impudent hijacking or bagging of a word for sensationalist purposes." Provocative fare sure to please both Amis' fans and students of the language. Joanne Wilkinson Top of Page Adult Booklist Index Booklist Archive ... Subscribe to Booklist Magazine

He was of the faith chiefly in the sense that the church he currently did not attend was Catholic. Outside every fat man there is an even fatter man trying to close in. Self criticism must be my guide to action, and the first rule for its employment is that in itself it is not a virtue, only a procedure. If you can't annoy somebody, there's little point in writing.

Kingsley Amis was awarded the CBE in 1981 and received a knighthood in 1990.

    Amis, Kingsley 1922-, English novelist. His first and best-known novel, Lucky Jim (1953), a brilliant comic satire on academic life, classified him as one of England's angry young men . His cultural and social disillusionment, always well laced with a fine sense of comedy, is also apparent in That Certain Feeling Take a Girl Like You (1960), and Ending Up (1974). Of Amis's other novels The Anti-Death League (1966) and Colonel Sun: A James Bond Adventure (1968) are espionage novels, while The Green Man (1969) is a ghost story, Girl, 20 (1971) a comedy, and The Riverside Villas Murder (1973), a mystery. Amis has also written Stanley and the Women (1985). In addition to several volumes of poetry, Amis has published numerous nonfiction works, including Socialism and the Intellectuals What Became of Jane Austen? (1970), and On Drink (1972). Amis's wife, Elizabeth Jane Howard, 1923-, is also a novelist. Among her works are The Beautiful Visit After Julius (1965), and
