Amsterdam by Ian McEwan
Megan Renehan, December 17, 2006
Written In classic McEwan style, Amsterdam is a brief novel that, once read, will stay in the back of the readers' mind for years to come. The story cuts straight to the heart of the human condition; McEwan draws the reader into the lives of his characters and spares us nothing.

Amsterdam is a remarkable novel that will leave you breathless and reeling.(7 of 13 readers found this comment helpful)
