In Between the Sheets

At once chilling and beguiling, the seven stories in this collection engage and implicate us in the most fearful ways imaginable. McEwan, the bestselling author of Atonement and one of literature's most acclaimed practitioners of literary unease, is "an acute psychologist of the ordinary mind" (The New York Times Book Review).

A two-timing pornographer becomes an unwilling object in the fantasies of one of his victims. A jaded millionaire buys himself the perfect mistress and plunges into a hell of jealousy and despair. And in the course of a weekend with his teenage daughter, a guilt-ridden father discovers the depths of his own blundering innocence.

Don't miss Ian McEwan's new novel, Lessons.
