 | The Child in Time by Ian McEwan, Nathaniel Parker THE CHILD IN TIME begins on a Saturday morning when Stephen Lewis and his 3-year-old daughter, Kate, go to the supermarket. As they wait in line, she is kidnapped -suddenly, inexplicably, without warning. The novel explores the effects of this harrowing event on Stephen and his wife, Julie. The novel's title comes from Stephen's awareness of time as it affects his missing child--hopelessly, as time goes by, he imagines her getting older--and himself, as he ranges backward into his own troubled childhood and forward to the devastating present trying to come to terms with his loss. THE CHILD IN TIME is one of the novels McEwan calls a story of crisis and transformation, rites of passage of great intensity for characters. It won a 1987 Whitbread Prize.
