opinions

I found some interesting comments about my book "Atonement" and it's author. Read with a pleasure!

"Subtle as well as powerful, adeptly encompassing comedy as well as atrocity, Atonement is a richly intricate book... A superb achievement."
- SUNDAY TIMES

"He is this country's unrivalled literary giant... a fascinatingly strange, unique and gripping novel."
- INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

"The best thing he has ever written."
- OBSERVER

"McEwan's best novel so far, his masterpiece."
- EVENING STANDART

"The control he exerts over his material here is masterly... The story demands attention from the opening sentences, and plays with attention to rare effect. Here, then, we see an outstanding writer stretching himself to a new extreme. The result is superb."
- FINANCIAL TIMES

"Nobody writes about England and the English better than McEwan, and this is one of his most powerful novels."
- SUNDAY EXPRESS

"McEwan's new novel is art of the very highest kind... Atonement creates the pre-war atmosphere with a subtlety that is utterly compelling... A masterpiece."
- SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY

"A hugely entertaining novel. As he proved with Enduring Love, McEwan is a master of the page-turner... An intricately crafted, satisfying plot, all recounted in prose which is at once exacting and exhilarating... McEwan's best novel to date, which is saying a lot of a writer who is already up there among the small handful of the truly great."
