42. Book Review: On Chesil Beach By Ian McEwan

Panels #4: Reviews of Recent DC Comics Every year Literary Review On Chesil Beach McEwan has merely dabbled in erotic writing before. The library scene in Atonement Saturday , a young woman in London undresses, but merely to recite a Matthew Arnold poem. (Ah, life must be different across the Big Pond!) But now McEwan devotes an entire novel to a honeymoon night gone terribly astray. Artfully juxtaposing his narrative of the honeymoon night with flashbacks and recollections, McEwan brings his two characters to life. Florence, the child of an affluent Oxford family, is a violinist with great aspirations for her ensemble, a string quartet, which she cajoles and prods with an intensity and self-confidence that is noticeably lacking in other spheres of her life. Edward is the child of a primary school headmaster and a brain-damaged woman whose mood swings and memory lapses perhaps contribute to his own unstable temperament. During his teenage years, he gets into street brawls on the slightest pretext, but eventually discovers a passion for medieval history that may point the way to a future career, or perhaps only to a temporary escape from the gritty realities of his day-to-day life.

    http://www.abc.net.au/rn/arts/bwriting/stories/s679422.htm
    
    Extractions: Ramona Koval : Ian McEwan’s novels and stories have won the Somerset Maugham Award, the Whitbread Prize and the Booker Prize, and he’s in the happy position of having his latest book, Atonement , regarded as his finest work. The early books contained sado-masochism, feral children, murder and incest, while Atonement deals with a writer’s attempts to put right a moral error that she made when on the cusp between childhood and adulthood. One reviewer said that ‘One opened McEwan’s earlier books safe in the knowledge that something atrocious would occur. These days, perhaps, it’s imminent calamity that’s in the offing. Whatever the expectation, though, there’s no doubt about the delivery, and Ian McEwan is regarded as one the finest English writers alive.

It is extraordinary to consider the distance McEwan has traveled in the intervening quarter century. Atonement (2001) employs the narrative voice of a 77-year-old English woman and focuses on a crucial period of British history between 1935 and 1940. Instead of the closed claustrophobic inner world of his early protagonists, Atonement ranges from an upper class household in pre-War southern England to the retreat of the British army to Dunkirk and to a wartime London hospital, ending with a coda in 1999. McEwan first effected his escape from an exclusively subjective narrative perspective in his third novel, The Child in Time (1987) in which the lost child of the title represents an outer as well as inner world. This novel came after a gap of six years during which McEwan had turned to drama as his principal outlet. In particular

    Extractions: Ian McEwan Novelist Ian McEwan's works have earned him worldwide critical acclaim. Among them are the Somerset Maugham Award in 1976 for his first collection of short stories First Love, Last Rites ; Whitbread Novel Award (1987) and Prix Fémina Etranger (1993) for The Child in Time ; and Germany's Shakespeare Prize in 1999. He has been shortlisted for the Book Prize for Fiction three times, winning the award for Amsterdam in 1998. His novel Atonement received the WH Smith Literary Award (2002), National Book Critics' Circle Fiction Award (2003), Los Angeles Times Prize for Fiction (2003), and the Santiago Prize for the European Novel (2004). His latest novel is Saturday (2005), which takes place during one day in the life of a brain surgeon. The date is 15 February 2003, the day of the large anti-war protest in London. The protagonist , a successful neurosurgeon with a happy family life, is brought into confrontation with a small-time thug over a car accident, with savage consequences. McEwan was born on 21 June 1948 in Aldershot, England. He studied at the University of Sussex, where he received a BA degree in English Literature in 1970. While completing his MA degree in English Literature at the University of East Anglia, he took a creative writing course taught by the novelists Malcolm Bradbury and Angus Wilson.

    Extractions: Newsletter sign up by Hillary Frey January 14, 2008 Getty Images We once had the pleasure of meeting Ian McEwan, the ever-more popular author of Atonement . (For the record, we will always favor his creepy classic, Enduring Love . A hot air balloon was never so memorable!) Mr. McEwan struck us as outrageously smart and outspoken (he’s been a staunch critic of the war on terror); he also had that impeccable grace the English seem to come by so easily. So perhaps it shouldn’t be a surprise that Mr. McEwan hates what you’re reading right now: blogs. The Literary Saloon points us to a recent interview with the author, from The New Republic, in which he makes it abundantly clear that those of us toiling in cyberspace are basically Neanderthals, at least when it comes to book criticism on the web. TNR: Do you read any online reviews? McEwan: I don't read the blogs much. I don't like the tone-the rather in-your-face road-rage quality of a lot of exchange on the Internet. I don't like the threads that come out of any given piece of journalism. It seems that when people know they can't be held accountable, when they don't have eye contact, it seems to bring out a rather nasty, truculent, aggressive edge that I think slightly doesn't belong in the world of book reviewing. here.

    Extractions: The Sunday Times January 23, 2005 It is the opening of Tate Modern and Tony Blair is in his cool Britannia heyday, feeling pleased with himself for correctly identifying a pile of bricks as an exhibit. He seizes the hand of the nearest scruff and tells him, with that customary stare of sincerity, how much he admires his art. Which would be mighty flattering, except his new best friend is actually a neurosurgeon. NI_MPU('middle'); McEwan used to be as miserable and as macabre as he was right-on and left-wing. But at 56 he has suddenly turned warm and cheerful. Later he was stricken with grief for his mother, who died after a long slide into dementia. Now he is remarried, re-energised and rejoicing in even greater popularity. McEwan, Martin Amis, Julian Barnes: for a quarter of a century they have been the three graces of English letters. And Saturday confirms how they, particularly McEwan, tower over the competition. He and his second wife Annalena are heading out to Uruguay to stay with Amis; there should be some lively debates poolside. For while Blair comes out of the book badly, anti-war protesters fare even worse.

    Extractions: skip to main skip to sidebar A scientist away from the lab bench Although I've only read one of Ian McEwan 's books, Saturday , that was enough to turn me into an admirer of his writing. He has a great way of making a scene feel real. There's an interview with him on The Guardian's science podcast which is well worth listening to. The way that he says things is almost as interesting as what he says. There's a great rhythm to his delivery, initially quiet, almost mumbling, it then rises in emphasis towards the end of a sentence. McEwan talks about a range of subjects, the communication of science, scientists he admires and the research involved in his novel mentioned above. As I've said, it's well worth a listen.

    Extractions: Breaking the silence of literature So, Ian McEwan isn't keen on the "road-rage" tone of blogs and "the threads that come out of any given piece of journalism" (what ever that means). It seems that when people know they can't be held accountable, when they don't have eye contact, it seems to bring out a rather nasty, truculent, aggressive edge that I think slightly doesn't belong in the world of book reviewing. (Mmm, that string of adjectives reminds me of another ). I'm as perplexed with this as The Literary Saloon is. Many blogs allow comments from readers precisely to generate the accountability of feedback, and there's about as much eye contact with its subject in print reviewing as there is in blogging. Also, it's ironic that he contrasts his dislike of blogs with his admiration for . I gave up on that page several years ago because of its bigoted and philistine tone. Would he feel any different about the site had it linked as regularly (or even once) to one of our best literary blogs - now sadly retired - as it did to shrill neo-liberal propaganda? For of course

McEwan's On Chesil Beach is now available in paperback from Vintage. The year is 1962. Florence, the daughter of a successful businessman and an aloof Oxford academic, is a talented violinist. She dreams of a career on the concert stage and of the perfect life she will create with Edward, the earnest young history student she met by chance and who unexpectedly wooed her and won her heart. Edward grew up in the country on the outskirts of Oxford where his father, the headmaster of the local school, struggled to keep the household together and his mother, brain-damaged from an accident, drifted in a world of her own. Edward’s native intelligence, coupled with a longing to experience the excitement and intellectual fervour of the city, had taken him to University College in London. Falling in love with the accomplished, shy and sensitive Florence – and having his affections returned with equal intensity – has utterly changed his life. Their marriage, they believe, will bring them happiness, the confidence and the freedom to fulfill their true destinies. The glowing promise of the future, however, cannot totally mask their worries about the wedding night. Edward, who has had little experience with women, frets about his sexual prowess. Florence’s anxieties run deeper: she is overcome by conflicting emotions and a fear of the moment she will surrender herself.
