About this listen

One windy spring day in the Chilterns Joe Rose's calm, organised life is shattered by a ballooning accident. The afternoon, Rose reflects, could have ended in mere tragedy, but for his brief meeting with Jed Parry. Unknown to Rose, something passes between them - something that gives birth in Parry to an obsession so powerful that it will test to the limits Rose's beloved scientific rationalism, threaten the love of his wife Clarissa and drive him to the brink of murder and madness.

Very much enjoyed the arc of this story, peppered with interesting side bars on science, psychology and memory. The narrator of the book is good, however took long inhalations regularly which irritated me. Otherwise, very good.

I loved the twists and turns of McEwan’s Atonement so I was looking forward to this book. I found it dragged and then came to an unsatisfactory end. I will not be recommending it.

Disappointed

Brilliant writing. Mocking Christians by making the idiotic believer the lunatic. Come on, really?
