Anna Ford to Martin Amis: stop your immature whingeing
Former newsreader accuses writer of a moan too far in open but highly personal Guardian letter
One is a literary titan, arguably the most original stylist of his generation, sparkling chronicler of the absurdities of our postmodern times, author of some of this country's best – and best-known – modern fiction. Or, if you prefer, an arrogant misogynist with some highly unpleasant views and a reputation as a serial womaniser who would have got nowhere without his dad.
