TheComfort of Strangers

The Comfort of StrangersThe Comfort of Strangers by Ian McEwan
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

If the book has been written by some other author, probably I would have put it away after 10 pages. Because it was Ian McEwan, I put it away less than 30 pages before the end, when I realized it will become unbearable.
In the first pages I gave some credit to the author as his detailed observation of each detail in behaviour of two main characters built some tension and awoke hopes that there will be some conclusion.
But when it reached a terribly long, detailed story from the childhood of Robert, a person met accidentally in the street, I lost any hope.
