The Blind Assassin

Just finished Margaret Atwood's Booker Prize-winning The Blind Assassin . Phenomenal book -- I was not expecting it to be so good. In fact, I was surprised I even attempted to read this book with a two-month old baby in the house to distract me (it did take almost a month to finish it, natch!).
The last Atwood book I attempted was Cat's Eye and I hated it. I believe I only got through the first few pages. I read The Handmaid's Tale in college and love it. In fact, it is one of my favorite novels.
