From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale

Cat's Eye is the story of Elaine Risley, a controversial painter who returns to Toronto, the city of her youth, for a retrospective of her art. Engulfed by vivid images of the past, she reminisces about a trio of girls who initiated her into the the fierce politics of childhood and its secret world of friendship, longing, and betrayal. Elaine must come to terms with her own identity as a daughter, a lover, an artist, and a woman-but above all she must seek release form her haunting memories. Disturbing, humorous, and compassionate-and a finalist for the Booker Prize-Cat's Eye is a breathtaking novel of a woman grappling with the tangled knot of her life.

Industry Reviews

"A brilliant, three-dimensional mosaic...the story of Elaine's childhood is so real and heartbreaking you want to stand up in your seat and cheer." --Boston Sunday Globe "Stunning...Atwood conceives Elaine with a poet's transforming fire; and delivers her to us that way, a flame inside an icicle." --Los Angeles Times

"Nightmarish, evocative, heartbreaking." --The New York Times Book Review

"The best book in a long time on female friendships... Cat's Eye is remarkable, funny, and serious, brimming with uncanny wisdom." --Cosmopolitan
