Ian McEwan is regarded by some critics as an author who oscillates between a "return to realism" and the metafictional postmodernist writing, a rather schizophrenic figure. This book makes an analysis of the metafictional features of Ian McEwan's most outstanding work, Atonement, in the light of postmodern narrative theories, regarding both metafiction and postmodernism. It may become useful and beneficial in that it gives a systematic and comprehensive study which could serve as a guide in the appreciation of McEwan¿s novel and even the contemporary English novel represented by him.
