Description
This Companion showcases the best scholarship on Ian McEwan's work, and offers a comprehensive demonstration of his importance in the canon of international contemporary fiction.
The whole career is covered, and the connections as well as the developments across the oeuvre are considered.
The essays offer both an assessment of McEwan's technical accomplishments and a sense of the contextual factors that have provided him with inspiration.
This volume has been structured to highlight the points of intersection between literary questions and evaluations, and the treatment of contemporary socio-cultural issues and topics.
For the more complex novels - such as Atonement - this book offers complementary perspectives.
In this respect, The Cambridge Companion to Ian McEwan serves as a prism of interpretation, revealing the various interpretive emphases each of McEwan's more complex works invite, and to show how his various recurring preoccupations run through his career.
