Ian McEwan is the bestselling author of more than ten books, including the novels Atonement, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award and the W. H. Smith Literary Award, The Comfort of Strangers and Black Dogs, both shortlisted for the Booker Prize, Amsterdam, winner of the Booker Prize, and The Child in Time, winner of the Whitbread Award, as well as the story collections First Love, Last Rites, winner of the Somerset Maugham Award, and In Between the Sheets. He has also written screenplays, plays, television scripts, a children’s book, and the libretto for an oratorio. He lives in London.
In his triumphant new novel, Ian McEwan, the bestselling author of Atonement, follows an ordinary man through a Saturday whose high promise gradually turns nightmarish. Henry Perowne–a neurosurgeon, urbane, privileged, deeply in love with his wife and grown-up children–plans to play a game of squash, visit his elderly mother, and cook dinner for his family. But after a minor traffic accident leads to an unsettling confrontation, Perowne must set aside his plans and summon a strength greater than he knew he had in order to preserve the life that is dear to him.

评分这本书里丝毫找不到一点“恐怖伊恩”的影子。满篇几乎洒满阳光,将伦敦塑造成一个恬静的小城,讲述的也只是一个小家庭的琐碎一天。 依旧不乏细腻的描写,精确的描述,读上去不费任何力气。情节如剧情片一样流畅,意义依然直指社会现实。 只能说这本书在伊恩的书...

评分开始看不进去,但没想到不错。后来越来越精彩。一些片段描述几乎引人深思。
评分虽然我知道他很擅长长篇大论的flashback,但是。。。还好我是跟never let me go一起读的,要不是我快反感死那个kathy,然后比起来这本读起来容易,我真是没那个耐心
