具体描述
On a chilly February day two old friends meet in the throng outside a crematorium to pay their last respects to Molly Lane. Both Clive Linley and Vernon Halliday had been Molly's lovers in the days before they reached their current eminence, Clive as Britain's most successful modern composer, Vernon as editor of the quality broadsheet, "The Judge". Gorgeous, feisty Molly had other lovers too, notably Julian Garmony, Foreign Secretary, a notorious right-winger tipped to be the next prime minister. In the days that follow Molly's funeral, Clive and Vernon will make a pact that will have consequences neither has foreseen. Each will make a disastrous moral decision, their friendship will be tested to its limits and Julian Garmony will be fighting for his political life. A contemporary morality tale that is as profound as it is witty, this short novel is perhaps the most purely enjoyable fiction Ian McEwan has ever written. And why Amsterdam? What happens there to Clive and Vernon is the most delicious shock in a novel brimming with surprises.

1970年，普林斯顿大学的心理学教授巴特森做了一个实验。他找来47名神学院学生，交代他们从心理系出发到社会学系大楼，至于到达后的具体任务，则因人而异。在这条路上，巴特森还安排了一位“可怜人”：他头发蓬乱，双眼迷离，坐在大楼前、咳嗽并呻吟着。实验结果令人惊讶：决定...
评分永远不要以为别人有多了解你，当你把你内心最真实的情感展露给你所谓的朋友时，你也将自己置身在了别人的砧板之上。人生来是教人孤独的，不要祈求灵魂的同行，只要享受和自己独处的时间，倾听内心最真实声音，所谓的痛苦才会离你远去。只有不相信自己的人才会想要通过伤害...

Flawed as this novel might be in its perspective, its adequacy of ellipticality as well as its construction, especially that of the end, it is still a devastatingly lovable piece, for it has the haunting effects of the absence of the significant female character Molly, the careful delineation of the rarely-seen side and dirty facet of human nature.

评分一个关于时机的故事：人们如何一次次与自己追求的时机擦肩而过，而总是卷入错误的时机酿成错误。很可惜，一个过于工整和刻意的结尾完全毁了前文蕴含的不稳定性。
评分An astonishing plot by an excellent writer; A wild and thrilling survey of human morality and the nature of human interaction.
