Atonement and Nevertheless (18 July 23)

“It wasn’t only wickedness and scheming that made people unhappy, it was confusion and misunderstanding; above all, it was the failure to grasp the simple truth that other people are as real as you.”



“And only in a story could you enter these different minds and show how they had an equal value. That was the only moral a story need have.” -Ian McEwan, Atonement

It's deep, complex, artistic, subtle & sentim...
