A review by meghanmdixon
Saturday by Ian McEwan

4.0

This was quite good! The only thing I've read by McEwan is Atonement which I also really enjoyed. I'm not usually a fan of excessive description, but strange enough excessive description and analysis of simple details is what draws me to McEwan's fiction. Saturday is a perfect example of this because the entire novel takes place in one day, a day in the life of a neurosurgeon sometime in London sometime shortly after 9/11. Very quotable, very moving, and very entertaining. I recommend this book to anyone who's a fan on McEwan's writing or books with a more philosophical vibe.
