Ian McEwan and Julian Barnes will probably have to duke it out for greatest living British author (suck it Amis). They both seem like pretty modest guys who write @ a steady pace and produced a high quality of work rather than one big masterpiece. Along with "Atonement," this is McEwan's signature novel, the story of a neurosurgeon in the course of one day, set in London shortly before the Iraq War. I always like McEwan without, you know, like liking him. And, of course, any book set on one day is bound to have the shadow of "Ulysses" hanging over it.
