5.0 out of 5 stars Lengthy Disturbed Notes on "An excellent holdiay read", 16 Sep 2007
By Robin Guest (optional) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
J.A. Fletcher has a wonderfully obtuse misapprehension that the York Notes is in fact the novel itself, and at times was overshadowed by his/her lengthy disturbed delusion for what seemed to be incessant wordy misunderstandings that left you feeling wryly amused.

The passionate shallowness of this
review cannot be overlooked, that it became sometimes a tedious monologue of words that drove you into reading the next sentence was maybe its intention. You need time to absorb the heavy prose and yet you miss nothing by not ignoring the details. Eventually there is an acceptance of this pointlessness that at times left me wondering why I persevered and finished the review. Please read the actual novel and look forward to seeing the film which I am sure Mr McEwan must have had a cumbersome time bringing to a conclusion that readers of the York Notes will find sufficiently dictinct to avoid confusing with.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent holdiay read, 28 Aug 2007
By J. A. Fletcher (kirkby-in-ashfield, notts United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book has a wonderful story and at times was overshadowed by its lengthy disturbed wording for what seemed to be incessant descriptive passages that left you feeling impatient.

The passionate depth of this
book cannot be overlooked, that it became sometimes a tedious monologue of words that drove you into reading the next chapter was maybe its intention. You need time to absorb the intricate prose and yet you miss nothing by not absorbing the details. Eventually there is an acceptance of this narrative that at times left me wondering why I persevered and finished the book. Please read it and look forward to seeing the film which I am sure the Director must have had a cumbersome time bringing to a conclusion that the general public will find sufficiently entertaining.
This review is for the book Atonement not the (York Notes Advanced)for some reason it appears in the wrong place, and was written originally under the correct location. Sometimes insults should be greeted with silence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great set of notes =], 2 Mar 2009
By B.W (England) - See all my reviews
After choosing to use Atonement for A2 level coursework I did initially find it difficult to think of an area of the book to focus on. I found this york notes in a Waterstones bookshop but paid £6.99 for it, buy it off amazon its a great price!! It has a detailed overview of each chapter and 'extended commentaries' containing some great ideas. As with other york notes it has its sections on themes, characterisation, language and style, and loads of notes on McEwan's life.
It has been a huge help to me and if anyone wants notes on Atonement, particularly for A levels it's hugely helpful =]
