具体描述
The literary event of the season: a new novel from Ian McEwan, as surprising as it is masterful.
Michael Beard is a Nobel prize–winning physicist whose best work is behind him. Trading on his reputation, he speaks for enormous fees, lends his name to the letterheads of renowned scientific institutions, and half-heartedly heads a government-backed initiative tackling global warming. While he coasts along in his professional life, Michael’s personal life is another matter entirely. His fifth marriage is crumbling under the weight of his infidelities. But this time the tables are turned: His wife is having an affair, and Michael realizes he is still in love with her.
When Michael’s personal and professional lives begin to intersect in unexpected ways, an opportunity presents itself in the guise of an invitation to travel to New Mexico. Here is a chance for him to extricate himself from his marital problems, reinvigorate his career, and very possibly save the world from environmental disaster. Can a man who has made a mess of his life clean up the messes of humanity?
A complex novel that brilliantly traces the arc of one man’s ambitions and self-deceptions, Solar is a startling, witty, and stylish new work from one of the world’s great writers.

读后感
是悲剧或许也是喜剧。麦克尤恩可真行《星期六》涉及外科神经领域，这回又涉足自然科学。我这个理科女刚看了个开头就被深深吸引。一上来他就暗讽：只要是人类所涉及的领域就必须受制于人性的弱点。一语道破天机。这回带有黑色幽默的描写也和我的口味，别尔德和奥尔德斯的形象太...
评分自从伊恩不再写那种卡夫卡式的小格子AB角剧目，而转向村上春树般的开放都市后，他似乎就失去了某些节制操守，开始肆无忌惮地当一个熟练的anti分子，而他这种冷眼旁观的anti其实才是最世故又最伤人。这使得《追日》这书显得过于好莱坞了点，一切的一切都那么恰到好处，严丝合缝...

评分这应该是我今年读过的最混乱的一本了。语言混乱感情做作仿佛用了点物理学的东西还不太在理。整个就是玩脱了。
评分讲得东西跟我们现今的学术圈很近啊！
