House of Meetings
Martin Amis’s new novella is an audacious attempt to compress the past 60 years of Russian history with all its hidden squalor and unspoken dread through the triangular love story of two half-brothers and the Jewish woman they love. A “love story, gothic in timbre and triangular in shape,” Amis’ 11th novel revisits Stalin’s labour camps and dramatises the nature of masculinity, power, violence and loveless sex.
