This small short book by Ian McEwan is set in 1962 on the Dorset coast in England and takes place in the space of an afternoon. It’s a snapshot of the time period and the social classes young, newly-married couple Florence and Edward belong to, right down to the description of their honeymoon supper. Sadly, although the two seem to have a lot in common, their shared interests are not enough to sustain their new relationship. Spoiler alert: This is the honeymoon from hell.--Barb P.
