Product details
"What We Can Know" by Ian McEwan is a speculative literary mystery set in 2119, where rising seas from climate catastrophe and nuclear fallout have reshaped Britain into an archipelago amid societal "Derangement" and survival struggles.
Plot Essentials
Literary scholar Thomas Metcalfe obsesses over a lost 15-sonnet poem "corona" by Francis Blundy, straining his relationship with partner Rose Church. Their quest uncovers Vivien Blundy's buried memoir revealing infidelity, Alzheimer's caregiving, murder, and sabotage of archives in the 2010s, mirroring modern denialism.
Key Themes
McEwan probes historical obsession versus present action, the myth of artistic genius, relational rivalries echoing across time, and hope amid crisis through failure's value and human frailty.
