NOTES English author Martin Amis rose to critical acclaim in the 1980s and 90s for his "London trilogy," a series of satirical novels which critique Western late-stage capitalism. THE ZONE OF INTEREST is Amis's second novel exploring the subject of World War II and Holocaust fiction, following his 1991 novel TIME'S ARROW. THE ZONE OF INTEREST portrays the Holocaust vis a vis a rotating triangle of narrators centered around the story of a Nazi officer who has fallen in love with his camp commandant's wife. A film of the same name, directed by Jonathan Glazer and loosely based on Amis's novel received the 2024 Academy Awards for Best International Feature Film and Best Sound. Glazer's adaptation also won the Grand Prix for its premier at Cannes Film festival. THE ZONE OF INTEREST maintains its relevancy as a shocking portrayal of tragedy through the eyes of its perpetrators.
