On the hottest day of the summer of 1934, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis sees her sister Cecilia strip off her clothes and plunge into the fountain in the garden of their country house. Watching her is Robbie Turner, her childhood friend who, like Cecilia, has recently come down from Cambridge. By the end of that day, the lives of all three will have been changed for ever. Robbie and Cecilia will have crossed a boundary they had not even imagined at its start, and will have become victims of the younger girl's imagination. Briony will have witnessed mysteries, and committed a crime for which she will spend the rest of her life trying to atone. "From this new and intimate perspective, she learned a simple, obvious thing she had always known, and everyone knew; that a person is, among all else, a material thing, easily torn, not easily mended.”

National Bestseller Ian McEwan’s symphonic novel of love and war, childhood and class, guilt and forgiveness provides all the satisfaction of a brilliant narrative and the provocation we have come to expect from this master of English prose. On a hot summer day in 1935, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses a moment’s flirtation between her older sister, Cecilia, and Robbie Turner, the son of a servant and Cecilia’s childhood friend. But Briony’ s incomplete grasp of adult motives?together with her precocious literary gifts?brings about a crime that will change all their lives. As it follows that crime’s repercussions through the chaos and carnage of World War II and into the close of the twentieth century, Atonement engages the reader on every conceivable level, with an ease and authority that mark it as a genuine masterpiece.

천진함으로 저지를 수 있는 범죄는 '어린아이'에서 끝나야 한다. 문제는 이런 '어린' 욕망이 한층 더 교활하고 치밀해진 어른의 욕망으로 자라날 때다. 매큐언은 '인간의 어두운 욕망과 집단 무의식'에 관한 주제를 다루는 작가 중에서 단연 탁월하다. 1998년『암스테르담』으로 영국 최고의 문학상인 부커상을 수상하기 전까지도 신체절단과 근친상간 등 소재의 선정성과 거침없는 전개 때문에 그의 이름 뒤에는 '불온함'이라는 빨간 딱지가 따라다녔다.
