Laura Chase's older sister Iris, married at eighteen to a politically prominent industrialist but now poor and eighty-two, is living in Port Ticonderoga, a town dominated by their once-prosperous family before the First War. While coping with her unreliable body, Iris reflects on her far from exemplary life, in particular the events surrounding her sister's tragic death. Chief among these was the publication of The Blind Assassin, a novel which earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety but also a devoted cult following. Sexually explicit for its time, The Blind Assassin describes a risky affair in the turbulent thirties between a wealthy young woman and a man on the run. During their secret meetings in rented rooms, the lovers concoct a pulp fantasy set on Planet Zycron. As the invented story twists through love and sacrifice and betrayal, so does the real one; while events in both move closer to war and catastrophe. By turns lyrical, outrageous, formidable, compelling and funny, this is a novel filled with deep humour and dark drama.

精彩!今年最佳!
评分打这个分数纯粹是个人好恶。故事真的很普通,很早就猜测到了Laura对Richard的抵触来自性侵。要把叙事搞得穿插藏闪想来免不了以牺牲故事为代价。书中书反而刺激又可爱,像是两情相悦的《一千零一夜》。另,Atwood的英语对我来说好难,比喻很丰富,用词偏爱俚语和法语拉丁语词。
评分这本书的叙事结构绝对是读过最精巧的之一,不乏作者对历史对未来的思考,里面穿插的小故事有种科幻的感觉。反正这是今年看过最好的书之一啦!喜欢文学的一定要去看呀:)
评分Beautiful, delicate, contained, and powerful.

那是一个慵懒而疲惫的周末上午,我躺在床上把它翻到最后一页。一个字一个字念出来,直到自己哽咽不能。我承认自己有借题发挥的嫌疑,眼泪不过凭借任何借口跑出来而已。但那种心情——一直到最后,你把密码留给风,还是等不到你所希冀的人来眷顾。在这一点上,不是你不想,而是...
评分我和亲爱的同事欧儿小姐窝在大图检室里,边工作边阿特伍德。 她手里的是《可以吃的女人》,我手里的是《盲刺客》。 她是个习惯一个字一个字啃书的细心女人,我是个修炼一目十行能力的抽象男人,我们在这次阅读中找到了共同点,那就是在哗哗的翻页声中大声的叹气。 这老太太太...
评分叙述的方式往往可以决定许多事情。比如说当艾丽斯写了一整本回忆录,却刻意地略掉了她和亚历克斯之间发生的一切,突然可以让人明白和他在一起的时间在她心中的位置。即使那是因为这大概是她乏善可陈的人生中唯一值得回忆的地方。 就这样一点埋藏在她心里的故事,甚至没有十年时...
