  • I suppose we shouldn't really turn this into a hate thread, but I totally agree. McEwan/Amis/Barnes etc being the worst offenders. Amis is embarrassing, but I actually find some McEwan properly awful too – Saturday, notably. Oh, God, and Amsterdam. And yet he invariably gets ecstatic reviews…

    Amsterdam was unbelievably poor. And that won the Booker.

    You're right though, enough hate! :)

    Let's go back to Hemingway. I'm torn between A Farewell to Arms and The Sun Also Rises. Think I might re-read them both.
