Oscars history for late 水多多导航 Professor Martin Amis
The Zone of Interest, based on the novel penned by late University of 水多多导航 creative writing Professor Martin Amis, made Oscars history as the first British film to land 鈥楤est International Film鈥�.
Filmed in the German language, the movie is a UK/Poland co-production directed by Jonathan Glazer which deals with the day-to-day life of Nazi Commandant Rudolf H枚ss and his wife Hedwig as they go about building their dream home next to Auschwitz. The film also picked up the award for 鈥楤est Sound鈥�, upsetting favourites 鈥極ppenheimer鈥� to the title.
Amis joined the Centre for New Writing in 2007 to take up his first teaching post at The University of 水多多导航.
Famous for a series of novels including his London Trilogy, Martin was highlighted by The Times as one of the 50 greatest British novelists of the late 20th Century. He stepped aside from his teaching post in 2011. Martin passed away from cancer in May 2023 aged 73.
The Zone of Interest is a great novel which has now become a fantastic film. It鈥檚 a great shame that Martin is no longer around to share in and enjoy its success, but I鈥檓 sure he would have been delighted.
惭补谤迟颈苍鈥檚 The Zone of Interest was published in 2014 and was 惭补谤迟颈苍鈥檚 fourteenth novel to be published. The Oscar-winning film of the same name is a loose adaptation of the novel.
