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.

McEwan centers the book on a real mental condition called De Clerambault’s Syndrome‚ which

Firstly‚ it is important to provide some sort of outline of what the term peace itself means. During my research I came across the notes of the Irenees’ Peace workshop held in South Africa in May 2007. According to these documents Peace does not mean the total absence of any conflict.
