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?
就着新出的电视剧,听完的。揭示了那个时代那个文化对the fairer sex的迷思。不错,值得一听。
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.
评分开头读起来有些啰嗦加无聊,读进去了之后还蛮不错;这个作者是真的能写,尤其擅长女性的心理活动(男性就……)。读到结尾对于女主的命运还是满唏嘘的。这部不算惊艳。
评分好到没话说
评分老太太太啰嗦了。。。
