This is a book by Ian McEwan. It is riveting. The guy I am seeing and I were discussing the dark parts of human sexuality one evening. This book was on is shelf and he loaned it to me. Has anyone else read it? If so, I am curious as to your thoughts…I finished it this afternoon outside of my co-op before going grocery shopping. I am still struggling with forming my opinion as I am still working out details of it in my head.

Have you read anything else by Ian McEwan?
