The year is 1962. Florence, the daughter of a successful businessman and an aloof Oxford academic, is a talented violinist. She dreams of a career on the concert stage and of the perfect life she will create with Edward, the earnest young history student she met by chance and who unexpectedly wooed her and won her heart. Edward grew up in the country on the outskirts of Oxford where his father, the headmaster of the local school, struggled to keep the household together and his mother, brain-damaged from an accident, drifted in a world of her own. Edward’s native intelligence, coupled with a longing to experience the excitement and intellectual fervour of the city, had taken him to University College in London. Falling in love with the accomplished, shy and sensitive Florence – and having his affections returned with equal intensity – has utterly changed his life.
Their marriage, they believe, will bring them happiness, the confidence and the freedom to fulfill their true destinies. The glowing promise of the future, however, cannot totally mask their worries about the wedding night. Edward, who has had little experience with women, frets about his sexual prowess. Florence’s anxieties run deeper: she is overcome by conflicting emotions and a fear of the moment she will surrender herself.
From the precise and intimate depiction of two young lovers eager to rise above the hurts and confusion of the past, to the touching story of how their unexpressed misunderstandings and fears shape the rest of their lives, On Chesil Beach is an extraordinary novel that brilliantly, movingly shows us how the entire course of a life can be changed – by a gesture not made or a word not spoken.

其實讀的過程中我幾度不耐煩,不理解,這樣的故事何須如此長的篇幅,結局很讓我滿意,絕對bravo。這不是一個關於愛或者性的故事,這個關於理想與現實選擇的哲理
評分先看瞭電影,後讀瞭書。 書裏Edward沒有去聽Florence的演奏,也沒有一個可能是Florence女兒的小孩去Edward店裏買唱片。就隻是從此以後再也沒見過,沒有任何交集。隻是平淡地度過一生,“drift through”the years
評分love and patience.
評分很愛。

評分相信大多数看过这本书的读者和我一样,都觉得这又是一本McEwan短篇小说式的长篇小说。 小说情节极其简单:一对新人(真正的新人,都是virgin)的初夜,由于紧张/缺乏经验,在极其尴尬的情景中以失败告终。进而是言语上的互相伤害,这些伤害是由于一个人对另一个人所说的话理解...
