24 | !!Tropes found in Amis' work: |
25 | * BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad: When viewed in reverse order, this is true of events in the real world. The whole point of ''Time's Arrow''. |
26 | * FemmeFatale: Deconstructed in ''London Fields''. Nicola Six sure is very attractive, seductive, and has morally ambiguous motives, but she's also full of self-hate, moral conflicts, and unstable self-confidence. Still she enjoys acting this character out. |
27 | * {{Foil}}: Guy, to Keith, in ''London Fields''. As stated by the author in the chapter he's introduced in's name ("The Foil"), even before the readers get to know his character... |
28 | * LemonyNarrator: In ''London Fields''. |
29 | * SliceOfLife: The ongoing lives of three Londoners take up much of ''London Fields''. |
