Rezension zu „First Love, Last Rites “
"A talented and genuine imaginative writer. McEwan's details often grow into strange, powerful images - the ironies, throughout this impressive collection, are tellingly weighted" -- Julian Barnes "A writer of uncanny power" Time "Ian McEwan writes to shock and succeeds... All his stories have a feeling of impending evil - it is a tour de force of concision, and funny, too, in a deadpan manner" Times Literary Supplement "His writing is exact, tender, funny, voluptuous, disturbing" The Times "A brilliant performance" Observer
