Corrections The Salon Interview - Ian McEwan Dwight Garner talks to Ian McEwan, the black magician of contemporary fiction, about mortality, gossip and his arresting new novel, 'Enduring Love.' By Dwight Garner "Ian McEwan is contemporary fiction's black magician. In novel after novel, beginning with "The Cement Garden" (1978), his crisp, almost clinically precise prose part Kafka, part "Lord of the Flies"-era William Golding sucks you into worlds that spin with violence, sexual aberration and paranoia. In the U.K., where he was among British fiction's angriest young men of the 1970s, he's long been dubbed Ian Macabre. McEwan is now 50, and the "Macabre" label fits him less snugly. In person he is amiable and almost shy. And after years of exploring such subjects as sadomasochistic intrigue (in 1981's "The Comfort of Strangers") and children who lapse into feral states (in "The Cement Garden"), his fiction has come to seem more open and humane while losing none of its potency. "Not many things in life get better as you get older," McEwan says. Writing, he implies, is one of them. McEwan's seventh novel, "Enduring Love,"

By Laura Miller Ian McEwan's latest novel is a dark, sleek trap of a book. It lures its readers in with the promise of a morality tale set in an English country manor in 1935. There will be a crime, we learn, and so far the novel's furnishings are at once cozy and exciting; we expect a certain kind of entertainment from this setup, not an Agatha Christie mystery by any means McEwan is a literary author with a reputation for the macabre but a story that permits us to observe any wrongdoing from a comfortable distance. Once we're caught in his snare, though, McEwan takes us deep into far more menacing territory. The house belongs to the Tallis family, and the first member introduced is the soon-to-be criminal, 13-year-old Briony, who is writing a play to be performed by herself and her three visiting cousins. Her mother Emily lies upstairs, nursing one of her chronic migraines and waiting for her husband to phone to tell her he's spending the night in London. Her restless older sister, Cecilia, frets about the unaccountable new awkwardness in her relationship to Robbie Turner, son of the family's cleaning woman and her childhood playmate. Everyone awaits the arrival of the adored eldest, Leon, who's bringing along his friend, Paul Marshall, an industrialist with big plans to sell candy-coated chocolate bars to the army in the increasingly likely event of England declaring war on Germany.

Well, i couldn't understand why i continued to read this book. When reading it i thought nothing much of it, however i continued nevertheless. he managed to keep me reading throughout, i couldn't put it down. There was nothing exciting happening, nothing i wanted to turn the page due to excitement of the event, simply amazing language and narrative techniques. I wanted to know why this boy thought in the way he did, why he saw his sister in this incestuous way. McEwan did not inform me later on the whys and hows. And the ending. I couldn't decide what i thought. This picture of the three of them, naked on the bed, a family, or a pack of wolves. The calm atmosphere created contrasted with the madness outside.

CAPITOLA BOOK CAFÉ 1475 41st AVENUE, CAPITOLA, CA 95010 USA Phone: 408-462-4415 Fax: 408-462-2536 An Interview with Ian McEwan The following is an abbreviated version of an interview that ran on the NPR affiliate KUSP on February 16th, 1998 and 12:00 pm. Eric Schoeck is the Capitola Book Café Events Coordinator. E.S.: Several of the reviews I've read have targeted the opening scene of Enduring Love as particularly compelling. Have you been hearing this from people as well? I.M.: I came across a journal entry I wrote about six months before I began working on Enduring Love . My journal tends to be full of little exhortations, and it said, "write a first chapter that would be the equivalent of a highly addictive drug." I did want to have the reader hit the ground running... E.S.: So to speak... I.M.: So to speak. In fact, one of the other chapters was originally the opening. It's a chapter where someone makes an attempt on the life of the narrator in a restaurant. E.S.: Which comes much later. I.M.:

How did you first come up with the idea of creating a characterwho is afflicted with de Clérambault's syndrome? Stalkers http://www.randomhouse.com/boldtype/0398/mcewan/interview.html

A recurring theme in your work seems to be that of ordinary lives that are rocked by the unthinkable. What inspires you to place your characters in these situations? Moments of crisis or danger represent a means of exploring charactersthe strengths and defects of personalitywhile at the same time offering a degree of narrative interest: it's a matter of having your cake and eating it. In both this novel, and your last novel, Black Dogs, you focus on the conflict between the spiritual or emotional and the rational sides of human behavior. What interests you about this struggle? Which characteristic do you most identify with? Even for atheists, the question of faith has to be an issue of importance. I regard irrational belief as being the essence of faith. It's also an enduring quality of being humanperhaps even written into our natures. No amount of science or logic will shift it. We are all magical thinkers one way or another. Your books suggest a strong grasp of psychology; what is your background? I assume you're asking about my education. I studied literature at university. I've always had a strong interest in science. What I know about psychology I've learned like everybody else: by making mistakes.

Der unbesonnenen Brionys Geschichte Ian McEwan Abbitte Zürich: Diogenes 2002, 534 S. 2002/09 Ixlibris Ian McEwans "Abbitte" ist ein vielschichtiger, anspruchsvoller und fesselnder Roman. Der britische Autor erzählt in schönster englischer Romantradition das Schicksal dreier Menschen, verbunden mit einer wunderbaren Liebesgeschichte. Alles ist eingebettet in die Geschichte einer Familie und ihres gesellschaftlichen Umfeldes von der Zeit zwischen den beiden Weltkriegen bis in die letzten Jahre des vergangenen Jahrhunderts. Auch Briony, im dritten großen Abschnitt des Romans nun eine junge Frau, lebt und arbeitet während des Krieges in London. Sie hat sich, statt wie erwartet einem Literaturstudium nachzugehen und sich ihrer Schriftstellerkarriere zu widmen, ebenfalls für die Ausbildung zur Krankenschwester entschieden. Ihre großen Schuldgefühle, das Leben ihrer Schwester und deren Geliebten aus falschen und egoistischen Beweggründen zerstört und Cecilia zur Loslösung von ihrer Familie veranlasst zu haben, ließ sie diesen Weg einschlagen. Aber als sie es schließlich schafft, ihre Schwester und Robbie noch einmal zu treffen und sich mit ihnen auszusprechen, wird ihr klar, das dieses Opfer nicht genügen wird, um ausreichend Abbitte zu leisten. Im letzten Teil von McEwans großartigem Roman wird endgültig deutlich, wie vielschichtig sein Werk angelegt ist. Denn nun ist es Briony selbst, inzwischen eine 77-jährige erfolgreiche Schriftstellerin und im Bewusstein einer unheilbaren, deprimierenden Krankheit, die dem Leser den "Schluss" ihrer Geschichte erzählt. Letztendlich macht sie aber auch deutlich, was es mit diesem "Schluss" eigentlich auf sich hat: dass es eben "ihr" Schluss ist, "ihre" Geschichte und dass nur sie allein dafür verantwortlich ist, weil sie ihn geschaffen hat, wie sie es für richtig hielt. Das ist die Freiheit, ja die Macht, aber auch der Fluch des Schriftstellers.
