For sure my Coe's favourite. This novel hosts another built-in novel (that eventually merges!); but also journalistic reportage, and political overview of the Thatcher era. A very ambitious program, in my opinion completely achieved. With a - errr - rather wild and unexpected conclusion, I might say... but not inappropriate.
I love the way McEwan turns words into tangible fabric. This novel plays with the blurring line between recognition and disbelief, reaches powerfully the depths of human feelings... love, fear, commitment, loyalty. Where does innocence end, and where insanity begins?
What a carve up!

The Innocent
I love the way McEwan turns words into tangible fabric. This novel plays with the blurring line between recognition and disbelief, reaches powerfully the depths of human feelings... love, fear, commitment, loyalty. Where does innocence end, and where insanity begins?
High Fidelity
Nearly useless, sometimes entertaining thirty-something generational novel.
Not too badly written, though.
In a word: average.
Kafka on the Shore
The world turned inside-out.
