Singularly beautiful and moving

One of the most true and moving novels of my time, in anybody's language

In a class by himself...the ultimate chronicler of twentieth-century man's consciousness and anxiety

Devastating study of the collision of different kinds of faith, betrayal and commitment

Greene's novel of illicit love captures perfectly the atmosphere of rainy wartime London - try to read this in one sitting if you can

A deliciously uncomfortable read for anyone who's allowed their heart to rule their head

Passionate, powerful and complex

One of our greatest authors - for experience of a whole century he was the man within

No serious writer of this century has more thoroughly invaded and shaped the public imagination than did Graham Greene

Greene’s classic wartime drama The End of the Affair is no less gripping for its simplicity…this unacceptable love, this devastating outcome.

A brilliantly spare examination of loneliness and the search for forgiveness in an unforgiving world… superbly atmospheric… This is Greene at his most existential and metaphysically dense… It remains an astonishing achievement

Astounding... This...is the best [Greene novel]...brimming with pain and rage. If you ever have aspirations to write a novel, read Greene. He's the perfect writer's writer

An incisive and empathetic study of adolescent alienation and the social conditions that drive radicalisation

An unflinching look at generational ambition and betrayal

A timely read that does a brilliant job of depicting the human cost when violence shifts from abstraction to reality

Provocative and resolutely compassionate

Reliably funny and wise, featuring delightfully eccentric and endearing characters

Arguably his best…. A must-read

Stunningly simple and profound.

The strength of this masterly novel is that it illuminates without pretending to explicate.

It’s signature Amis at his most inventive, and it is through…inspired and irreverent fluency that his dead-serious purpose is realized.

Most fiction would break under the weight of so much self-reflection, but The Zone of Interest does not even bend... Deft, ironic and horribly funny... A brilliantly believable account of an episode which is beyond belief.

The Zone of Interest succeeds because in it Amis is seriously funny - that is to say, funny for serious purposes.

Martin Amis’s best novel in years

It’s a brilliant feat of imagination and chutzpah.

Is the Holocaust a fit subject for fiction? … The only proper response is to read this remarkable, deeply disturbing and quite original novel.

Martin Amis’s The Zone of Interest achieved the near impossible, confounding his detractors with this horrifying glimpse into the heard of Nazi darkness.

The Zone of Interest is Amis at his boldest and best.

What would be otherwise be light entertainment…becomes sinister and strange, warped by the enormous atrocities happening just offstage.

Martin Amis’s best novel in years.

It is always hard to read factual material about the Holocaust but in fiction Amis has shined a light into this darkness which offers no answers but is still profoundly moving.

It was very, very good.

I think everyone should read it – it is so horrific.

A well-received return to form

Astonishingly bold novel… [It] is Amis’s best work in years

Amis’s best work since Money
