Hardback fiction | Literary Fiction

In one of the most striking opening scenes ever written, a bizarre ballooning accident and a chance meeting give birth to an obsession so powerful that an ordinary man is driven to the brink of madness and murder by another's delusions. Ian McEwan brings us an unforgettable story--dark, gripping, and brilliantly crafted--of how life can change in an instant.
