Ian McEwan – Atonement – First Edition 2001
£50.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Jonathan Cape, London, in 2001. This is a near fine copy. The dust wrapper is without notable wear and has not been price clipped. The boards are free from chips and marks and the corners are sharp, though there is a slight lean – bumping to the corners. The text blocks are bright and white and free from foxing. No inscriptions. Overall, this copy is in near fine condition.
Set in three time periods, 1935 England, Second World War England and France, and present-day England, it covers an upper-class girl’s half-innocent mistake that ruins lives, her adulthood in the shadow of that mistake, and a reflection on the nature of writing. Shortlisted for the 2001 Booker Prize for fiction.
