Michael Beard is a Nobel prize-winning physicist whose best work is behind him. When Beard's professional and personal worlds collide in a freak accident, an opportunity presents itself for Beard to extricate himself from his marital mess, reinvigorate his career and save the world from environmental disaster.
Savagely funny... Enormously entertaining
A satirical masterpiece...it will come to be regarded as a classic
A stunningly accomplished work, possibly his best yet
McEwan has succeeded in producing a novel that is both profoundly serious and hilariously funny
Vivacious and sprawling, a beautifully and compellingly written novel
