Synopsis
In her bestselling novel The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret Atwood masterfully took us to a chilling world of the future. In her astonishing new novel Alias Grace, she just as convincingly takes us back 150 years and inside the life and mind of one of the most notorious women of the 1840s. Grace Marks is serving a life sentence for her part in the vicious murders of Thomas Kinnear, a wealthy landowner, and Nancy Montgomery, his housekeeper and mistress. Some believe Grace is innocent; others think her evil or insane. Grace herself now claims to have no memory of the murders.Simon Jordan, a young New England doctor in the field of mental health and an expert on amnesia, has been engaged to find out the truth. To do so, he must awaken that part of Grace's mind that lies dormant, using the practices of the science he has such great faith in. As Grace reveals details about Kinnear's and Nancy's unconventional domestic arrangements, Simon brings her closer and closer to the day she has so determinedly repressed.Into this rich work of the imagination--of sex, violence, immigration, spiritualism, and the brutal existence of the underprivileged--Margaret Atwood has brought her brilliant insights into the relationships between men and women and those between the society of the entitled and those without positions. Superbly evoking a century past and alive with mesmerizing storytelling, Alias Grace is vintage Atwood.

- g***t (1554)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller accepted my offer of a 10% discount. Description of the book seemed to indicate 'Like New' condition. I guessed with the seller's 100% rating that it would be so. Yes! Couldn't be happier with the condition. Book was carefully wrapped with paper and then put in a box with a buffer of paper to protect it in transit. Very professional packing. Fast delivery between New York state and the Houston area. Seller highly recommended. Thank you!
- r***y (112)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat seller. The seller and I exchanged a series of offers; the seller was quick to counter. Very reasonable. Then when the back & forth was over, the seller quickly shipped my items to me. When I received them, they were very well packed. When I unpacked them, they were in better condition than I thought they would be. Seriously, what more could a person want.
