Ian McEwan
Ian Russell McEwan (born 21 June 1948) is an English novelist and screenwriter. In 2008, ''The Times'' featured him on their list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945".
McEwan began his career writing sparse, Gothic short stories. ''The Cement Garden'' (1978) and ''The Comfort of Strangers'' (1981) were his first two novels, and earned him the nickname "Ian Macabre". These were followed by three novels of some success in the 1980s and early 1990s. In 1997, he published ''Enduring Love'', which was adapted into a film. He won the Man Booker Prize with ''Amsterdam'' (1998). In 2001, he published ''Atonement'', which was adapted into an Oscar-winning film starring Keira Knightley and James McAvoy. This was followed by ''Saturday'' (2005), ''On Chesil Beach'' (2007), ''Solar'' (2010), ''Sweet Tooth'' (2012), and ''The Children Act'' (2015). In 2011, he was awarded the Jerusalem Prize.
==Early life==
McEwan was born in Aldershot, Hampshire, on 21 June 1948, the son of David McEwan and Rose Lilian Violet (née Moore).〔 His father was a working class Scotsman who had worked his way up through the army to the rank of major. He spent much of his childhood in East Asia (including Singapore), Germany and North Africa (including Libya), where his father was posted. His family returned to England when he was twelve. He was educated at Woolverstone Hall School; the University of Sussex, receiving his degree in English literature in 1970; and the University of East Anglia, where he undertook a master's degree in creative writing.
