«Atonement» is the historical novel by Ian McEwan, published by Anchor Books in paperback (496 pages, in English).
Briony Tallis is thirteen when, in the summer of 1935, she misinterprets a scene between her sister Cecilia and Robbie Turner. That misunderstanding, fueled by her imagination, triggers a crime that will change their lives; the narrative follows its consequences through the Second World War and up to the end of the twentieth century.
With cover from the 2007 movie adaptation. Shortlisted for the Booker Prize for fiction in 2001; Time magazine included it in 2010 among the 100 best novels in English since 1923.
For readers of literary and historical fiction and for those seeking the novel on which Joe Wright's 2007 movie is based.
