Atonement

I finished reading Atonement by Ian McEwan last night -- one of the best books I ever read! It's structure is similar to Enduring Love, with one significant event at the beginning setting of all subsequent events, but it involves multiple points of view. Characters evolve more because of the passage of time rather than anything that happens in the book. It's also like The Little Friend (Donna Tarte) in that it explores the unreliability of a child's point of view, but unlike Little Friend, the narrator is present and takes some responsibility for the reader's ultimate happiness. I appreciate having a narrator who thinks about my needs.
