The Children Act by Ian McEwan - Paperback

Didn't enjoy this book atall

could not put it down. It is incisive, sensitive writing about who we are and what we try to be. Ian McEwan is a magnificent writer.

Drawing on real-life cases (not officially) for fictional purposes, presents reader with interesting and taxing moral dilemmas, though not quite convinced about the a-typical behaviour eventually exhibited by main character when the professional collides with the personal. Situation slightly strained credulity but a riveting tale anyway! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Fascinating.

Totally absorbing, elegantly written, the legal and medical detail are so brilliantly written that you are gripped. The characters are, as always with this author real human beings you care hugely about. A wonderful book.

Good read
