Dead Babies is Martin Amis's second novel, published in by Jonathan Cape. It was published in paperback as Dark Secrets. [1] Amis's second novel—a parody of Agatha Christie 's country-house mysteries [2] —takes place over a single weekend at a manor called Appleseed Rectory. Dead Babies is Amis' second novel which takes his unique style of the grotesque - or as it was called 'the new unpleasantness' - to the nth degree. The novel focuses on a rabble of upper class drug users that convene at a country estate for a lost weekend - cue decadence, excessiveness and a lot of humour (albeit rather puerile humour). I think the other reviews here for this Martin Amis novel are very apt. "Dead Babies" is a glib, superficial novel, not up to Amis's usual standards and obviously written early in his career. Characters are barely developed, the plot is obscure at best and at times completely incomprehensible, and Amis's disgust and nastiness (always present in his writing) is undisciplined here and overshadows everything else.
