- The Villain – Paul Marshall:
- McEwan seems to marginalise Paul’s criminality – not pursued or punished

- Lola:
- Lola is sidelined as a victim – Briony makes story about herself
- Before the assault, Lola was a victim of her parents divorce
- After the rape ….
- Robbie:
- Already victim of class distinctions – Emily Tallis doesn’t forgive him for getting a first from Cambridge
- Falsely accused of crime he didn’t commit
- Briony:
- Victim of her emerging sexuality, inadequate parenting, biology, class and over imagination
- Cecilia
- Another victim of social obligation to her sister
- Becomes an outcast because of her education
