A Few Problems with England's Favorite Novelist

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: This is highly literate and intelligent writing. It's a fascinating story premise and idea. I disagree with the focus and the way in which the Author told it, though.
Review: English Author Ian McEwan's novel, "Atonement" focuses heavily on World War 2. Unfortunately, the back flap of the novel doesn't tell you this. I would have liked to be forewarned as I am not a fan of war stories and novels that heavily emphasize...

I just had to put it down

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: Avoid it, long pointless book.
Review: I've read many books, good and bad, but I always managed to finish reading them. I give them a chance just in case it starts out slow and miraculously gets better in the end.

I saw the previews for the movie Atonement and heard it was...

sentimental journey

Date of Review:  Jun 13, 2002
The Bottom Line: As the story unfolds situations will arise that strike deep into your heart, you will feel deeply involved with the experiences of the main characters.
Review: This is the story of one hot summer afternoon and evening for a young teenage girl, her interaction with the people around her, and the events prior to and after the event. It also ties in the experiences of the people around her.

Stylish book

Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2002
The Bottom Line: One of the best books for the year
Review: The first part of Atonement is initially a recollection of a single day in 1935. The main character is Briony, a thirteen-year-old, but the narrative voice is in the 3rd-person; and fully aware of the competence of a young girl acting as narrator...

Worthy of its Booker nomination

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2002
The Bottom Line: For its deadly accurate representation of the thought processes and motivations of 3 interconnected individuals, I would recommend this to all readers.
Review: This is the second of McEwan's novels I have read, following "Enduring Love" and I am rapidly becoming a fan.

At first sight this book is very different to Enduring Love in that it is a period piece set in 1930s England featuring an...
