McEwan tends to use a 'stream of consciousness' narrative style, where the reader directly follows the thoughts of the narrator, as in 'Enduring Love' and 'Saturday.' His novel 'Atonement' places a story within a story. 'Saturday,' in the style of Woolf's 'Mrs Dalloway,' JD Salinger's 'Catcher in the Rye' and James Joyce's 'Ulysses,' is written within the literary framework of 24 hours as a metaphor for life's events and human development.
