"Heartbreaking. . . . Breathtaking. . . . Masterly. . . . No one now writing in English surpasses or even matches McEwan's accomplishment." --The Washington Post Book World
"Remarkable, engaging, and gripping. . . . On Chesil Beach is not only a wonderful read but also perhaps that rarest of things: a perfect novel." --San Francisco Chronicle
"Dazzling. . . . McEwan treats [his subject] with a boundless sympathy, one that enlists the reader even as it disguises the fact that this seeming novel of manners is as fundamentally a horror novel as any [he's] written." --Jonathan Lethem, The New York Times Book Review
"A small, perfect, haunting work of art. . . . McEwan draws a humane, touching, sometimes comic portrait of marital misunderstanding in an era when so much less was sayable, or said." --Los Angeles Times Book Review
"Vintage McEwan. . . . His finely honed prose is a deep pleasure to experience." --Chicago Sun-Times
"Marvelously realized. . . .Wrenching, funny, smart, and hugely gratifying in unexpected ways. . . . On Chesil Beach is as merciful to its characters as it is merciless in its heartbreak." --The Boston Globe
"Exquisite. . . . compressed, crisp, [and] warmly specific. . . .[A] small masterpiece." --Entertainment Weekly, "A"
"Quietly riveting. . . . McEwan has never written more beautifully than he does in [this] melancholy and haunting new novel." --O, The Oprah Magazine
"A poignant meditation on love's ebb and flow." --Vogue
"A parable of failed empathy . . . mordant [and] melancholy." --The Village Voice
"Completely absorbing. . . . [I]nfused with a bitter poignancy...intense and powerful . . . a masterpiece." --The Philadelphia Inquirer
