Saturday

So despite the miniscule amounts of free time I have lately, I'm still trying to get my leisure read in. The book is Ian McEwan's Saturday.

His prose is just mesmerizing. I am still haunted when I think of certain passages from Atonement. I love all the medical terminology he's using (main character is a neurosurgeon) and the backdrop of a post-September 11th London is fresh and relevant. But I'm just not pulled in yet like I was with Atonement. I think I need to dedicate more time to a sitting than I have been.
