''The Moronic Inferno: And Other Visits to America'' (1986) is a collection of non-fiction essays, on the subject of America, by the British novelist Martin Amis. ==Amis on ''The Moronic Inferno''== In the book's introduction, Amis reveals that he had been asked to write a book about America on previous occasions, but that ''The Moronic Inferno'' had come together "unpremeditated, accidental, and in installments" while he was "upending () desk drawer to prepare a collection of occasional journalism".〔Amis, Martin, ''The Moronic Inferno'', p.ix〕 The 'Moronic Inferno' of the title is a phrase that Amis acknowledges is derived from a line by Saul Bellow, who in turn had borrowed it from the British author Wyndham Lewis.〔Amis, Martin, ''The Moronic Inferno'', p.xi〕〔James Diedrick, ''Understanding Martin Amis'', South Carolina: University of South Carolina Press, 2004. p. 200.〕〔Martin Amis, "The Moronic Inferno," ''London Review of Books'', 1 April 1982.〕
