Taken up reading this one after a very long time. Iris Chase is intriguing and the style of the writing is so unique that there is a sense of something dark lurking in the shadows of a seemingly straightforward and normal life.

"Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge." The first sentence itself is so captivating. So much was said in such few words. I am hooked from the word go!
Atwood brushes this momentous event aside, after hinting at a possibilitty of suicide, like it is an everyday occurence; leaving the reader gasping for air and breathless in anticipation. Brilliant!
