Unlike most interviews, it is a proper conversation, edgy without being confrontational. Not surprisingly, I agree with Amis on the elemental scale of the Islamist threat, and applaud his refusal to explain it away as the product of Western policy errors. But I am dismayed that my favourite author describes Diet Coke – the drink of which I consume gallons a day – as “the least cool of all drinks”. Very unsettling.
