Ian McEwan - Atonement Review

Overall Rating

Foolishly I have started 'Atonement' with too high expectations. It's a great book if you feel bad and want to immerse yourself in another world and I also would recommend it as reading for your holidays. The psychological description of the three central characters is by all means laudable and conclusive. But finally, I couldn't help thinking that it was written as/ for a big 'love and war' - film.
