Neboh\u00e1 Molly! Zem\u0159ela po nemoci tak n\u00e1hl\u00e9, \u017ee ani nestihla uspo\u0159\u00e1dat svou poz\u016fstalost. <\/p>\n
Na poh\u0159bu se sch\u00e1z\u00ed \u010dty\u0159i mu\u017ei jej\u00edho \u017eivota: Man\u017eel George, b\u00fdval\u00fd milenec Julian Garmony (politik, slibn\u00fd kandid\u00e1t na premi\u00e9ra), b\u00fdval\u00fd milenec Vernon (\u0161\u00e9fredaktor upadaj\u00edc\u00edho magaz\u00ednu Judge) a b\u00fdval\u00fd milenec Clive (hudebn\u00ed skladatel). V\u0161ichni se navz\u00e1jem v\u00edce \u010di m\u00e9n\u011b nen\u00e1vid\u00ed, a\u0165 u\u017e otev\u0159en\u011b, nebo skryt\u011b. A na nez\u00fa\u010dastn\u011bn\u00e9 p\u016fd\u011b zaml\u017een\u00e9ho h\u0159bitova za\u010d\u00edn\u00e1 ironick\u00e1 hra osudu…<\/p>\n
Vernon a Clive, p\u0159\u00e1tel\u00e9 ze zvyku, spolu uzav\u0159ou zvl\u00e1\u0161tn\u00ed dohodu: Kdyby se jeden z nich dostal do situace, kdy by u\u017e s kone\u010dnou platnost\u00ed nemohl ru\u010dit za sv\u00e9 jedn\u00e1n\u00ed a hrozilo mu, \u017ee zem\u0159e ned\u016fstojn\u011b, v bolestech a mimo p\u0159\u00e1tele (jako Molly), ten druh\u00fd mu pom\u016f\u017ee. P\u00e1r pr\u00e1\u0161k\u016f na span\u00ed rozdrcen\u00fdch ve whisky… To by mohlo sta\u010dit. Navz\u00e1jem si sl\u00edb\u00ed asistovanou sebevra\u017edu.<\/p>\n
N\u011bkolik dn\u00ed po poh\u0159bu prod\u00e1 George Vernonovi skand\u00e1ln\u00ed fotografie Garmonyho. P\u0159edstavte si kandid\u00e1ta na premi\u00e9ra, jak vyz\u00fdvav\u011b p\u00f3zuje v \u017eensk\u00fdch \u0161atech. Co s takov\u00fdmi fotkami m\u016f\u017ee ud\u011blat \u0161\u00e9fredaktor pl\u00e1tku, jeho\u017e n\u00e1klad vyd\u00e1n\u00ed od vyd\u00e1n\u00ed kles\u00e1? Vernon se rozhodne je zve\u0159ejnit a p\u0159ipravuje velk\u00fd speci\u00e1l. Clive s t\u00edm rozhodn\u011b nesouhlas\u00ed.<\/p>\n
Clive je ve stresu z bl\u00ed\u017e\u00edc\u00ed se uz\u00e1v\u011brky – p\u00ed\u0161e na zak\u00e1zku \u201csymfonii Mil\u00e9nia\u201d a po tragick\u00e9 smrti Molly, zvl\u00e1\u0161tn\u00ed dohod\u011b s Vernonem a h\u00e1dce ohledn\u011b Garmonyho fotografi\u00ed se na pr\u00e1ci nedok\u00e1\u017ee sous\u0159edit. Odjede do hor a v okam\u017eiku vrcholn\u00e9 inspirace se stane skryt\u00fdm sv\u011bdkem zlo\u010dinu. M\u016f\u017ee si vybrat – bu\u010f zakro\u010d\u00ed, nebo dokon\u010d\u00ed \u00fa\u017easnou variaci. Co m\u00e1 v takov\u00e9m okam\u017eiku ud\u011blat cti\u017e\u00e1dostiv\u00fd skladatel, kter\u00fd u\u017e pro\u0161vihl t\u0159i uz\u00e1v\u011brky? Clive si za\u010dne hv\u00edzdat… Kdy\u017e se o tom pozd\u011bji zm\u00edn\u00ed Vernonovi, p\u0159\u00edtel jej za to odsoud\u00ed.<\/p>\n
V\u0161estrann\u00e1 tich\u00e1 nevra\u017eivost a touha po pomst\u011b v\u0161echny p\u0159ivede k n\u00e1padu se navz\u00e1jem zni\u010dit.

A nikdo nem\u00e1 \u0161anci vyhr\u00e1t. <\/strong> Kl\u00ed\u010dov\u00fd motiv mu\u017ee v \u017eensk\u00fdch \u0161atech se objevil u\u017e v Betonov\u00e9 zahrad\u011b (chlapec Tom se po smrti rodi\u010d\u016f za\u010dal obl\u00e9kat jako d\u00edvka). V Amsterdamu jako by Tom vyrostl a svou nevyhran\u011bnost si p\u0159enesl s sebou do dal\u0161\u00edho rom\u00e1nu.

U\u017e jeho prvotina z roku 1978 Betonov\u00e1 zahrada (u n\u00e1s vy\u0161la v roce 1993) zp\u016fsobila obrovsk\u00fd poprask. McEwan jako autor vyvol\u00e1v\u00e1 rozporupln\u00e9 reakce – proti po\u010detn\u00e9mu davu fanou\u0161k\u016f stoj\u00ed mno\u017estv\u00ed lid\u00ed, pro kter\u00e9 je lacin\u00fdm provokat\u00e9rem se sklonem k liter\u00e1rn\u00ed perverzi.
