Acerca de esta escucha

Brought to you by Penguin.

A mesmerising novel from Ian McEwan, the bestselling author of Atonement. The world is forever changing. But for so many of us, old wounds run deep. Lessons is an intimate yet universal story of love, regret and a restless search for answers.

While the world is still counting the cost of the Second World War and the Iron Curtain has descended, young Roland Baines's life is turned upside down. Stranded at boarding school, his vulnerability attracts his piano teacher, Miriam Cornell, leaving scars as well as a memory of love that will never fade.

Twenty-five years later, as the radiation from the Chernobyl disaster spreads across Europe, Roland's wife mysteriously vanishes and he is forced to confront the reality of his rootless existence and look for answers in his family history.

From the fall of the Berlin Wall to the Covid pandemic and climate change, Roland sometimes rides with the tide of history but more often struggles against it. Haunted by lost opportunities, he seeks solace through every possible means ­- literature, travel, friendship, drugs, politics, sex and love.

His journey raises important questions. Can we take full charge of the course of our lives without damage to others? How do global events beyond our control shape us and our memories? What role do chance and contingency play in our existence? And what can we learn from the traumas of the past?

What can I say, everything I expected and more. I'm already looking forward to a second, slower parse. Nicely narrated by Simon McBurney.

This book sparked many insightful and challenging Gender role and equality discussions. Always seems like Men are given an easier pass when abandoning their families for some Artistic pursuit of grandeur. Few challenge the stereotype like this novel and yet it is not central to the story. Larger issue around how our earliest sexual encounters can shape an entire life span.

So many story lines over a lifespan well told

Great story and writing; to bad the narrator didn’t put in the effort regarding the German pronounciation.

masterpiece. a very personal and moving story of growing old, against a backdrop of European history, and the foolishness of people and countries not learning anything from experience.

wonderful

While the length required commitment, there were many surprisingly elegant turns of phrase and small insights that kept me engaged. The lessons learnt are delicately drawn and sometimes left hanging. Are they questions?

Epic Journey

Simply marvelous. I feel to humbled by the fantastically precise and yet unpretentious prose to even attempt a detailed review. I'll simply say that this is a wonderfully convoluted and somewhat extreme (it IS Ian), but yet strangely relatable story. Add to this a brillant narator an you have a perfect litterary experience that doesn't even make you feel guilty for not "realy reading it".

McEwan at his best

Pretty standard McEwan, which is to say very accomplished and entertaining. As is often the case, I find it a little annoying how his characters often tend to be ultra talented or fortunate. In this case, for instance, the main character is a gifted pianist who marries a brilliant novelist. But M certainly knows how to tell story; and he is great at finding the exact words to describe a person, place, time, culture, or mindset. Somewhat weak on dialogue, though. The reader is fine without being exceptional.
