Blind Assassin

The epic of a family's collapse in a spiral of suicide, love, death and betrayal

“Love is a crime, but not having it is a greater crime.”

Two sisters, whose father owns a button factory and who spend their growing up years without a mother, between the two world wars… Iris will pay the price of the crisis on behalf of her family and marry the rich Richard Griffen, while Laura will commit suicide, leaving behind a painful secret and her dystopian novel The Blind Assassin, which tells the story of a city taken over by a blind assassin.

The roofs where money, prosperity and family happiness, which were thought to be eternal, were razed to the ground by the winds of the wars that shook the century and the socialist activist that the two sisters hid in the attic, and the ruins left two women behind. their lives are left fragmented, unrealized, full of secrets.

Atwood's Booker Prize-winning family story, told using the novel-within-a-novel technique, is a unique work that reflects the present and future face of human tragedy.
