Atonement is a novel by author Ian McEwan. The story is about an upper-middle-class girl in interwar England-- who aspires to be a writer-- who makes a mistake that has life changing effects for everyone involved, namely her sister and her sisters lover. There are four parts to the novel. The first part of the book is told from the perspective of 13-year-old Briony Tallis, and spans a few days time where her cousins come to visit, and her sister Cecilia starts a romanic relationship with Robbie Turner, a childhood friend. Briony ends up telling a lie that gets Robbie sent away. Part two starts during WWII, after Robbie has spent three years in prison, and is released to enlist in the army, and Cecilia has become a nurse, as well as cut off all ties with her family. The whole of part two centers around the two of them. Part three follows the now remorseful Briony as she starts her training as a nurse in London. She has now realized the full extent of her crime. Finally, the fourth part, titled "London 1999" is written from Briony perspective. She is a successful novelist at the age of 77 and is dying. It is revealed that Briony is the author of hte preceding section of the novel. There is also a twist ending, in which the ending of the third part is different from what Briony reveals actually happened.

Differences between the book "Atonement" and the movie vary from the more in-depth understanding of the characters and point of views in the book that aren't in the movie to the wry sense of humor that the book possesses and the movie does not. The film deals with emotions of the characters where the book is more internal. Also, the book is wordy and lengthy whereas the movie seems to oppose this in a rebellious sort of way by going in a different type of direction.

One difference is that Azog was killed during the Battle of Azanulbizar (the fight outside of Moria). He was killed by Dain Ironfoot who was mentioned in An Unexpected Journey. This event happened 142 years prior to The Hobbit.

Another is the meeting of the White Council (Galadriel, Elrond, Saruman, and Gandalf in the film). This scene does not exist in the book.

Another is that the Dwarves did not meet with Radagast

There are some minor differences with dialogue and order of events as well.
