Título: THE SECOND PLANE
Autor: AMIS, MARTIN
Editorial: RANDOM HOUSE UK / USAISBN: 978-0-224-07610
Includes essays and reviews about September11. This book provides an account of the author´s travels with Tony Blair in 2007 - to Belfast, to Washington, and to Baghdad and Basra.Martin Amis first wrote about September 11 a week later in a piece for "The Guardian" beginning, ´It was the advent of the second plane, sharking in low over the Statue of Liberty: that was the defining moment.´ And he has kept returning to September 11, in essays and reviews, and in two remarkable short stories, ´In the Place of the End´ and ´The Last Days of Muhammad Atta´. All are collected here, together with an expanded account of his travels with Tony Blair in 2007 - to Belfast, to Washington, and to Baghdad and Basra. ´We are arriving at an axiom in long-term thinking about international terrorism,´ he writes: ´the real danger lies, not in what it inflicts, but in what it provokes. Thus by far the gravest consequence of September 11, to date, is Iraq ...Meanwhile, September 11 continues, it goes on, with all its mystery, its instability, and its terrible dynamism.´
