Eccomi qua (finalmente): sono io la tua "wishfulfiller" estiva :-)
Poiché non padroneggio benissimo l'inglese, nello scegliere mi sono affidata, oltre che alla mia esperienza con l'autore di "Bambini nel tempo", allo stralcio della recensioni riportate nella quarta di copertina, che lo definiscono un capolavoro.
Dunque, buona lettura!

Reading this book now, with a bit of changing on habits between couples, it's quite nice. Florence and Edward can't help entering your heart, and I felt involved in the whole story just from the first pages. A book about life, about love. A delicate travel into deep thoughts, inner coflicts, little steps, unsaid things. No matter if things changes during the years, the only thing that really matter is this one: we must be sure we know ourself enough before we try to understand the one we would like to spent our life with.

The story of Edward and Florence makes me reflect about how can be difficult to learn to manage one’s sexuality. The characters of the novel have their first disastrous experience in their wedding night, but I think in everyone’s life there are moments like that, and fears and desires can be managed only with patience…and experience. At the end of the novel Edward regrets his not having been patient, reinforcing another typical theme of McEwan’s books: what happens in a single moment can change one’s life forever (this is perhaps the reason for Edward’s love for single persons that can change history).
Ian McEwan is a master in describing particulars (more about bodies and feelings than about nature), his language almost perfect. I really enjoyed it. Thanks, Lizzy, the book is coming back home.
