on the beach

Year 1962. Two young people came to the Dorset coast for their honeymoon: Florence and Edward. One is a musician from a distinguished family; The other is a young man from a more modest family, with a history degree. Two people from different classes, who grew up in the years when sexual taboos had not yet been broken. The first night of their marriage is both excitement and fear for them. Sometimes disgust, sometimes passion.

In his novel, which starts at a dinner and ends in the early hours of the morning, Ian McEwan, one of the important names of contemporary English literature, describes so well the first hours of the marriage of two inexperienced young people, oscillating between passion and tragedy, that this short novel It suddenly turns into a detailed analysis of the relationships of young people of the period.

"An extraordinarily written novel... Heartbreaking, funny, genius... McEwan is very compassionate towards his characters, but also cruel in the face of heartbreak."
