In Alias Grace, bestselling author Margaret Atwood has written her most captivating, disturbing, and ultimately satisfying work since The Handmaid's Tale. She takes us back in time and into the life of one of the most enigmatic and notorious women of the nineteenth century.
Grace Marks has been convicted for her involvement in the vicious murders of her employer, Thomas Kinnear, and Nancy Montgomery, his housekeeper and mistress. Some believe Grace is innocent; others think her evil or insane. Now serving a life sentence, Grace claims to have no memory of the murders.
Dr. Simon Jordan, an up-and-coming expert in the burgeoning field of mental illness, is engaged by a group of reformers and spiritualists who seek a pardon for Grace. He listens to her story while bringing her closer and closer to the day she cannot remember. What will he find in attempting to unlock her memories? Is Grace a female fiend? A bloodthirsty femme fatale? Or is she the victim of circumstances?

评分 评分 评分故事略复杂,个人认为尾声部分有点落入俗套,待重读。诗意化的语言和叙事视角转换是作者的拿手好戏。教写作的老师可以拿阿特伍德的书当教材。
评分老太太太啰嗦了。。。
评分本来觉得结尾有点潦草,不过想想一个celebrated murderess's mistery 的真相也许正是如此吧.
