![]() ![]() I haven’t read everything by him- “Nutshell” was the last and I reckon this latest makes it my 11 th experience of him over the years. I had never read anything like these before and his first novel “The Cement Garden” (1978) was equally flooring.ĭecades on we are up to his 17 th adult novel and along the way there has been the all-time classic, “ Atonement” (2001) and the very strong, (“ Enduring Love” (1997)“, The Innocent” (1990), “Saturday” (2005) and “ Nutshell” (2016)), the okay “On Chesil Beach” (2007) and the one which left me cold but won him the Booker Prize in 1998 “Amsterdam”. I first discovered Ian McEwan when I was a teenager and I can still recall being blown away by his two collections of short stories – “First Love, Last Rites” (1975) and “In Between The Sheets” (1978). ![]()
