«Chesil Beach» is the novel by Ian McEwan published by Editorial Anagrama in hardcover (192 pages, in Spanish).
Florence and Edward, twenty-somethings from different social classes, spend their wedding night in a hotel near Chesil Beach in July 1962, in England before the sexual revolution. The evening becomes a tense encounter between desire and lack of communication, with memories of their courtship: love, sex, and the weight of an era marked by silences.
Published in 2008, it is part of the Panorama de narrativas collection (no. 688), translated by Jaime Zulaika from the original English On Chesil Beach.
For readers of contemporary literary fiction and for those seeking a short novel about human relationships.
