Enduring Love or Possessive Love? Enduring Love opens up with a visual opening of a freak-like accident occurring to rescue a boy from a hot air balloon. This event serves as a symbol to the righteous postmodern novel. I plan to demonstrate how McEwan presents obsession in Enduring Love for an audience of classmates that seems to be for people as a form of truth if confronted by a distressing situation. McEwan centers the book on a real mental condition called De Clerambault’s Syndrome‚ which

How does McEwan tell the story in chapter 9? McEwan uses a different perspective to the rest of the novel‚ he uses a form of 3rd person narrative but solely Clarissa as his chosen subject‚ he also tells the reader this at the start‚ “ It would make more sense of Clarissa’s return to tell it from her point of view.” McEwan uses this to singularly show movements of Clarissa‚ because up until then Joe’s perspective has been the main focus‚ and not any other characters. This way McEwan is able to
