Lessons

Autor Ian McEwan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 iun 2023
The story of a life. The story of the summer.

'Lessons shows [McEwan] at the very peak of his powers. He has written his masterpiece' Daily Telegraph


When the world is still counting the cost of the Second World War and the Iron Curtain has descended, young Roland Baines's life is turned upside down. Stranded at boarding school, his vulnerability attracts his piano teacher, Miriam Cornell, leaving scars as well as a memory of love that will never fade.

Twenty-five years later Roland's wife mysteriously vanishes, and he is left alone with their baby son. Her disappearance sparks of journey of discovery that will continue for decades, as Roland confronts the reality of his rootless existence and attempts to embrace the uncertainty - and freedom - of his future.
