Cat's Eye
Cat's Eye
Author: Margaret Atwood
Genres: Literature & Fiction, Substores
Book Type: Paperback

This book is written like a finely crafted piece of needlework. It is most eloquent in the first half when the childhood experience is developed in a raw, untarnished way. Unfortunately, the second half of the book fell off for me as much of the character recycles, in one way or another, her early years. Atwood is at her best when she's telling the truth and not just trying to finish the book.
