Martin Louis Amis (born August 25, 1949) is a British novelist known for works such as "Money" (1984) and "London Fields" (1989). He served as a professor of creative writing at a center for new writing at the University of Manchester until 2011. Amis was ranked by The Times as one of the fifty greatest British writers since 1945. His writing reflects the absurdities of postmodernism and the horrors of capitalist Western society. Influenced by authors like Saul Bellow and Vladimir Nabokov, he has also significantly impacted a generation of writers, including Zadie Smith.
