Martin Amis in _Talk_ (fwd)

Martin Amis makes good use of both _Ada_ and poshlost in a cutting
review of Thomas Harris's _Hannibal_. I don't have the magazine so I
can't quote, but he referred to the world Harris created for his
serial-killer cannibal as an effective Antiterra. Later on he
criticizes the pulp novelist in very Nabokovian-poshlost manner,
accusing him of vulgarity.
It's all very funny and appropriate and VN-ish, and a far better read
than the Hillary Clinton interview.
Cheers,
Juan Martinez
