Whilst the main character of a Nobel Prizewinning physicist and his attempts to tackle the problem of global warming did not sound like something I would be particularly interested in, I decided to persevere in the hope that McEwan's talent for storytelling and enabling the reader the empathize with the characters would overrule.
Whilst I admire the dedication that McEwan put into in researching his novel, I ended up skipping through whole paragraphs of the book which he used to describe in great detail principles of...more
