Product Description
Synopsis
On the hottest day of the summer of 1934, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis sees her sister Cecilla strip off her clothes and plunge into the fountain in the garden of their country house. Watching her is Robbie Turner, her childhood friend who, like Cecilia, has recently come down from Cambridge. By the end of that day, the lives of all three will have been changed for ever. Robbie and Cecilia will have crossed a boundary they had not even imagined at its start, and will have become victims of the younger girl's imagination. Briony will have witnessed mysteries, and committed a crime for which she will spend the rest of her life trying to atone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply wonderful, 26 May 2006
At times predictable, but charmingly well written. Rich descriptions and vivid dialogue paint a narrative of pain, lies and much regret, with a finale that is both nostalgic and liberating. A wonderful read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Slow start but well worth keeping with, 24 Nov 2005
By A Customer
This story does take a while to get going, but the writing style is enticing and you do get a real sense of the characters. The story progresses through the war and gives very believeable accounts. Well worth the read.
