Semi&Gas12 – Ian McEwan: Solar
Objavljeno: Ne jan 29, 2012 9:45 pmIan McEwan: Solar
Solar is an engrossing and satirical novel which focuses on climate
change. It is a stylish new work by one of the world's greatest living
writers about one man's ambitions and self-deceptions. Michael Beard
is in his late fifties; bald, overweight, unprepossessing - a Nobel
prize-winning physicist whose best work is behind him. Trading on his
reputation, he speaks for enormous fees, lends his name to the
letterheads of renowned scientific institutions and half-heartedly
heads a government-backed initiative tackling global warming. An
inveterate philanderer, Beard finds his fifth marriage floundering.
Then Beard's professional and personal worlds are entwined in a freak
accident...
