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.
Margaret Atwood was born in 1939 in Ottawa and grew up in northern Ontario, Quebec, and Toronto. She received her undergraduate degree from Victoria College at the University of Toronto and her master's degree from Radcliffe College.

Atwood's dystopic novel, Oryx and Crake, was published in 2003. The Tent (mini-fictions) and Moral Disorder (short stories) both appeared in 2006. Her most recent volume of poetry, The Door, was published in 2007. Her non-fiction book, Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth in the Massey series, appeared in 2008, and her most recent novel, The Year of the Flood, in the autumn of 2009.

不知道为什么,看完一本跟自己有点特殊缘分的书总是觉得要写下点什么才算是完结。其实这个有缘,也没有看上去那么玄乎,它大致可以解释为我喜欢的,或者是认识很久,一直打算要看,可是却因为种种原因一直没看的书。或许还有一种是我们遇见的方式比较特别。总之,《盲刺客》就...
评分 评分玛格丽特•阿特伍德的《盲刺客》足有600多页,在小说已经简约化和快餐化的今天,显得有些冗长。对于19世纪的人来说,小说是主要的消遣方式之一,人们也没有电视看,可以秉烛夜读;不用上班,一个冬天不出门,就可以围着火炉捧着大部头消磨时间,所以出现像《战争与和平》那样...

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...
