內容簡介

內容簡介 NATIONAL BESTSELLER Booker Prize Finalist The New York Times Book Review EDITORS� CHOICE and a Washington Post , Boston Globe , Chicago Tribune , Los Angeles Times , and San Francisco Chronicle BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR �A beautiful and majestic fictional panorama.� �John Updike, The New Yorker The introduction, discussion questions, suggested reading list, and author biography that follow are intended to enhance your group�s reading of Ian McEwan�s international bestseller Atonement . National Bestseller Ian McEwan’s symphonic novel of love and war, childhood and class, guilt and forgiveness provides all the satisfaction of a brilliant narrative and the provocation we have come to expect from this master of English prose. On a hot summer day in 1935, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses a moment’s flirtation between her older sister, Cecilia, and Robbie Turner, the son of a servant and Cecilia’s childhood friend. But Briony’ s incomplete grasp of adult motives–together with her precocious literary gifts–brings about a crime that will change all their lives. As it follows that crime’s repercussions through the chaos and carnage of World War II and into the close of the twentieth century, Atonement engages the reader on every conceivable level, with an ease and authority that mark it as a genuine masterpiece.
