Winner of the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse prize 2010.
Featured on The Book Show on Sky Arts on 25 March 2010.
On Chesil Beach was the last offering from McEwan and although beautifully formed it was a novella rather than a good chunky novel so it’s been four years since we could sink our teeth into a McEwan novel and we certainly haven’t been disappointed. Great characters, great plot and the wonderful observations on human frailty that McEwan makes so well.
The Good Housekeeping view...
April 2010 Good Housekeeping selection.
Ian McEwan’s new novel Solar, which sees flawed prize-winning physicist Michael Beard discover a way to combat climate change, while the rest of his life falls apart. Both the author and his books divide opinion, but with Amsterdam, Atonement and On Chesil Beach, he has become one of Britain’s biggest literary names.
