What We Can Know by Ian McEwan is a literary novel set across future and past, using a lost poem and a damaged world to examine memory, art, climate, and what survives after civilization changes. McEwan turns literary investigation into a meditation on inheritance, knowledge, and the fragile record people leave behind.
