The Child in Time by Ian McEwan

2.0

---

I was disappointed in The Child in Time. I am a big McEwan fan but this lacks a compelling story. Not enough plot and too much feelings, is that the right word. McEwan can do great plots but this left me cold. I didn't really care about any of the characters and certainly not about the blasted committee about children's literacy.[return][return]It started so well, a very dramatic disappearance of his child, but then lost its way I thought.
