On
a hot summer day in 1935, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses a
moment s flirtation between her older sister, Cecilia, and Robbie
Turner, the son of a servant and Cecilia s childhood friend. But Briony s
incomplete grasp of adult motives together with her precocious literary
gifts brings about a crime that will change all their lives. As it
follows that crime s repercussions through the chaos and carnage of
World War II and into the close of the twentieth century, Atonement
engages the reader on every conceivable level, with an ease and
authority that mark it as a genuine masterpiece.
