Loved it. He almost flirts with satire at the beginning, but I soon cared for both characters and it ends up being a very moving tragedy.
His prose style isn't anything to really excite me, but the book doesn't call for any pyrotechnics. Anyway, it was brilliantly put together and he clearly has a talent for the craft.
No idea why they made a movie of it when it can be read in an afternoon.
Now I want more McEwan.
