Located on a neo-classical square laid out by Robert Adam, it also faces onto the British Telecom Tower, a '60s-era spike. Perowne lives in a house with the same views. And the poignant ramblings of his mother Lily, who suffers from vascular dementia--"I put sap in the clock to make it moist"--are transcribed directly from the speech of McEwan's mother Rose, using notes McEwan took on visits before...
