Times Arrow is a good read as well.

  Just thinking of that. I keep a copy of Hitch's "Love, Poverty, and War" as a bathroom reader, and although I don't recall the specific section, it was through their friendship that I was introduced to Martin's father's works. The glue binding my copy of Lucky Jim dissolved in the back windshield of my car one summer, and I remember chasing the pages at the Indian mounds where I'd go after school to read. I'll have to give Time's Arrow another read.

    You probably know this but for others, Lucky Jim was written by his father Kingsley Amis, who was also a popular author in his time. Reading Martin’s memoir about his relationship with his dad is pretty good.
