Welcome to Litsy!

My third McEwan's books.
Uff... Boring and slowly.
Not one of my favorite writers.

1962 Florence and Edward celebrate their wedding in a hotel on the Dorset coast. The expectation of their marital duties weighs over them. This is story of lives transformed by a gesture not made or a word spoken. A heartbreaking story which could have turned around if Edward would have showed a bit of love and patience instead of giving up on her. A bit disappointing! I did love the ending however!

#ianmcewan has a real talent for writing in a way that leaves you reaching out for something which simply isn‘t there. A beautiful little tragedy of a book. Highly recommended. #onchesilbeach

“On Chesil Beach he could have called out to Florence, he could have gone after her. He did not know, or would not have cared to know, that as she ran away from him, certain in her distress that she was about to lose him, she had never loved him more, or more hopelessly, and that the sound of his voice, would have been a deliverance, and she would have turned back.” 🎻 🌊 ♥️ #onchesilbeach #ianmcewan

Showcases total lack of communication in relationships. A must read. Melancholy though.
