Summary
Summary
Critically acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Ian McEwan has earned some of the most prestigious accolades in fiction, including the Booker Prize and the Whitbread Novel of the Year Award. Shortlisted for the 2001 Booker Prize, Atonement is a psychologically penetrating tour de force that Publishers Weekly hails as “masterfully crafted.”
In the summer of 1935, 13-year-old Briony Tallis wildly misinterprets the relationship between her sister Cecilia and Robbie Turner, childhood friends home from Cambridge. So when her young cousin is assaulted, Briony gives in to her hyperactive imagination and blames the atrocity on Robbie. It is a terrible decision that alters lives and fills Briony with an everlasting sense of guilt.
