Embark on a profound journey through life's pivotal moments with Ian McEwan's critically acclaimed novel, Lessons. This paperback edition, published by Vintage Publishing on June 22, 2023, spans an immersive 496 pages, offering a deep dive into the life of Roland Baines. From the lingering shadows of World War Two and the descent of the Iron Curtain, Roland's childhood takes an unexpected turn when he is sent to boarding school, miles away from his mother's affection. There, his youthful innocence makes him susceptible to the attention of his piano teacher, Miriam Cornell, an encounter that leaves him with indelible scars and a lasting memory of love. The narrative then leaps forward to a poignant moment 25 years later, when Roland's wife inexplicably vanishes, leaving him to navigate a solitary existence with their infant son. Confronted by the reality of his own rootless life, and amidst the unsettling spread of radiation from the Chernobyl disaster, Roland embarks on an extensive quest for answers. This search delves deep into the complexities of his family history, a lifelong endeavor that shapes his understanding of himself and the world. Praised by Vogue as 'Luminous, beautifully written... about lives imperfectly lived' and by The Times as 'Life-affirming', this novel promises a rich and thought-provoking reading experience. It is classified as Modern & contemporary fiction post 1945, with ISBN13 9781529116311. This paperback edition is brought to you by Vintage.
