Description
Martin Amis discusses his book, “Yellow Dog." He explains that the novel charts the lives of five very different men. The central protagonist is Xan Meo, who in the beginning is depicted as a modern Renaissance Man, but later suffers a personality change following a severe head injury. Amis also discusses his research into the world of American pornography, which he utilizes in the plot of this novel. Later in the interview he explains the influence his children have had on his writing and his intentions to move to South America.
