## Description

The publication of Atonement cemented Ian McEwan’s reputation as one of the most exciting and accomplished writers of his generation. From its breath-taking opening section, telling the events of a fateful summer’s day in 1935, McEwan unravels a tale of love and war that breaks the heart, even as the master novelist’s provocative twists of form dazzle the senses.
