Atwood, Margaret
Cat's Eye
Mass Market Paperback; Good
Elaine Risley is a middle-aged Canadian painter (and daughter of a forest entomologist) who is thrust into an extended reconsideration of her past while attending a retrospective show of her work in Toronto, a city she had fled years earlier in order to leave behind painful memories. Most pointedly, Risley reflects on the strangeness of her long relations with Cordelia, a childhood friend whose cruelties, dealt lavishly to Risley, helped hone her awareness of our inveterate appetite for destruction even while we love, and are understood as characteristically femininea betrayal of other women that masks a ferocious betrayal of oneself. Emerging the stronger for her latecoming understanding of herself, Risley in the final pages rises above the ties that bound her, transcendently alive to the possibilities of light, shining out in the midst of nothing.

Atwood, Margaret
The Blind Assassin
Oversized/Trade Paperback; Good
The Blind Assassin opens with these simple, resonant words: "Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge." They are spoken by Iris, whose terse account of her sister's death in 1945 is followed by an inquest report proclaiming the death accidental. But just as the reader expects to settle into Laura's story, Atwood introduces a novel-within-a-novel. Entitled The Blind Assassin, it is a science fiction story told by two unnamed lovers who meet in dingy backstreet rooms. When we return to Iris, it is through a 1947 newspaper article announcing the discovery of a sailboat carrying the dead body of her husband, a distinguished industrialist. Brilliantly weaving together such seemingly disparate elements, Atwood creates a world of astonishing vision and unforgettable impact.

The Robber Bride
Paperback; Good
Roz, Charis, and Tony have been brought together by Zenia: a beautiful, intelligent, manipulative woman that deceives all of them in order to pluck their husbands and lovers out from under their noises. Zenia enjoys the hunt and the chase; once she wins these men, she throws them away. When Zenia returns from the dead, some time after a funeral that all three of them attended, the women recount their life stories and what Zenia did to them and then search for ways to come to terms with her--and to beat her at her own game.
