As a book-lover I always keep an eye out on exploring new authors .. new for me I mean..there is such a never-ending scope for this..
So ..my newly discovered author is 'Ian Mcewan' .. I started with 'Atonement' whose reviews I read somewhere and found interesting...and it did not disappoint me (more on this later though..)..
Lookout on more stuff by the same author led me to 'Amsterdam' ..and I picked it up..and ohh...what a pick !!
Ian McEwan at his best .. brilliant...superb .. is 'Amsterdam' !!
His style is unique..one by one he introduces you to his characters ..familiarizes you with each...and Bang - a twist in the plot !! That is really a treat for the readers !
It is not the story - but the way he has presented it..ofcourse the story supports all his twists and turns...
But .. a must read..
I dont think its fair to include the plot here .. its a fairly small book and a book-lover wont be able to put it down , once he starts anyway :-)
But if some of you feel I should narrate the plot..please let me know..and I shall try to do that too.
so..Go ..pick 'Amsterdam' and have good fun !
