Download The Second Plane: September 11, Terror, and Boredom AudioBook Free
A grasp not only of fiction but also of fiercely controversial political engagement, Martin Amis here gathers 14 portions that constitute an evolving, provocative, and insightful examination of the most momentous event of your time. At the heart of this collection is the long essay "Terror and Boredom", an unsparing analysis of Islamic fundamentalism and the West's flummoxed respond to it; other portions addresses the invasion of Iraq, the realities of Iran, and Tony Blair's lingering departure from Downing Neighborhood (and also his vacations to Washington and Iraq). Whether lambasted for his refusal to kowtow to Muslim pieties or hailed for his common sense, huge reading, and astute point of view, Amis is indisputably a great pleasure to hear - informed, graceful, surprising - and this collection a resounding contemplation of the relentless, manifold potential issues we abruptly find ourselves coping with. As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard creation of Martin Amis' reserve, you can also get an exclusive Jim Atlas interview that commences when the audiobook ends.
