raises the question of her identity. A peek into the index identifies her to be his daughter. Wait. There are surprises to come. Perhaps to whet the suspense, Amis begins with the trials and tribulations of book tours after he is already engrossed in new work. We learn something about Isabel, his wife, and a Beryl Bainbridge book turned into a movie. Then, comes the problem of divulging secret transgressions to younger children before they hear the facts through the media. It is striking that children tend to accept some events without assigning moral or immoral to them. Amis then comments on the historical change toward suicides. In the past, according to Amis, such a death was greatly censured, determining one's burial, etc.
