Booker Prize-winning novelist Ian McEwan said there was a “great tenderness” to late author Martin Amis – who was seen as “the Mick Jagger of literature”.
Author and screenwriter Amis, 73, whose novels Money and London Fields made him one of the most renowned literary figures of his generation, died from cancer of the oesophagus at his home in Florida, his agent Andrew Wylie confirmed last week.
