Slepoi ubiitsa [Blind Assassin]

'The Blind Assassin' is not one novel, but several that Margaret Atwood put into each other - like a nested doll. And the more the plot unfolds, the more outlandish elements appear. The story of two sisters, Iris and Laura, seems simple only at first glance. The writer does not change herself and, with amazing skill, talks about people who have something to hide. Before us is not an ordinary novel about the fate of women of the 20th century, connected by an invisible thread, but life itself - with its squabbles, problems and miracles. 'Everything in the world of history is about wolves. All that is worth retelling. The rest is sentimental nonsense,' wrote Atwood, who created one of the most amazing novels of his time. That's just the muzzle of her wolves will be human.
