On the hottest day of the summer of 1934, thirteen-year-old Briony
Tallis sees her sister Cecilia strip off her clothes and plunge
into the fountain in the garden of their country house. Watching
her is Robbie Turner, her childhood friend who, like Cecilia, has
recently come down from Cambridge. By the end of that day, the
lives of all three will have been changed for ever. Robbie and
Cecilia will have crossed a boundary they had not even imagined at
its start, and will have become victims of the younger girl's
imagination. Briony will have witnessed mysteries, and committed a
crime for which she will spend the rest of her life trying to
atone. "From this new and intimate perspective, she learned a
simple, obvious thing she had always known, and everyone knew; that
a person is, among all else, a material thing, easily torn, not
easily mended."
