Winner of the Man Booker Prize By the author of The Handmaid's Tale and Alias Grace 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.
