Ian McEwan's Lessons, his most autobiographical novel, is a new experiment in vulnerability
- Written by: Kate Flaherty, Senior Lecturer (English and Drama), Australian National University
Markus Gjengaar/UnsplashLessons is Ian McEwan’s most autobiographical novel to date. It is the story of a man’s life, but it is also the story of a man making his life into a story. It exemplifies the risks and rewards of living a life shaped from within by the logic of literature.
Lessons – Ian McEwan (Jonathan Cape).
