Reviews
Marks the debut of a talented and genuinely imaginative writer * New Statesman *
As promising a first collection of stories as I have ever come across * Vogue *
Ian McEwan writes to shock and succeeds... It is a tour-de-force of concision, and funny, too, in a deadpan manner * Times Literary Supplement *
And now for a brand new writer of formidable talent, Ian McEwan who is 27. His stories First Love, Last Rites...are the most devastating debut I have seen for a long time * Daily Mail *
A brilliant debut by the most promising writer around * Observer Books of the Year *
