Machines like Me displays… impressive richness. Machines Like Me reminds us that McEwan is once-in-a-generation talent, offering readerly pleasure, cerebral incisiveness and an enticing imagination.
Bill PrinceĬompelling… unforgettably strange… there are many pleasures and many moments of profound disquiet in this book, which reminds you of its author’s mastery of the underrated craft of storytelling… is morally complex and very disturbing, animated by a spirit of sinister and intelligent mischief that feels unique to its author. as mordant a chronicler of the age as we have… Machines Like Me offers as good a primer on the multifarious anxieties that should afflict us all as anything catalogued as "non-fiction". McEwan knows all the novelistic rules… restlessness when it comes to subject matter, even as he enters his seventies, is stunning… shimmer with relevance. Few carry out this exploration as thoroughly, or as literally, as does. Many literary novels claim to be exploring ‘what it is to be human’. Ian McEwan has always been a generous writer to his readers, his novels bulging with big ideas and rich story-telling… hard not to admire the sheer scale of McEwan’s ambition. The novel is as honed and well constructed as one would expect from McEwan… a sleek and streamlined work by a master technician. Ian McEwan's latest novel, Machines Like Me, is a topsy-turvy tour de force. McEwan gives the whole subject of artificial intelligence a thorough and fascinating examination… a rich and thought-provoking read.
In, McEwan has taken his creativity into a subversive alternative 1980s London… the young couple at the centre of McEwan’s story find out the danger in inventing things beyond our control. McEwan returns with another ambitious, high-concept work. Olivia Ovenden, Harper's Bazaar, *The Books We Can't Wait To Read In 2019* This is new and exciting ground for McEwan, one of Britain's most consistently brilliant writers. Traverses the muddled morality of Artificial Intelligence.
