The Blind Assassin (Signed) - Atwood, Margaret
SIGNED BY MARGARET ATWOOD on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; "Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge." Thus begins this stunning novel. Laura Chase's older sister Iris, married at 18 to a politically prominent industrialist but now poor and 82, is living in Port Ticonderoga, a down dominated by her one-prosperous family before WWI, While coping with her now unreliable body, Iris reflects on her far from exemplary life, leading up to the events surrounding her sister's tragic death. Chief among these was the publication of "The Blind Assassin," a novel that earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety, but also a devoted cult following.
