Margaret Atwood's

the Blind Assasin

It is an amalgam of nested story lines. Unfortunately 'synergy' did not work to Atwood's favour.
The story of two sisters is very uninteresting. I still read on, to find out why the book is called so. The fictionary tale about the blind assassin's is worth the perseverance.
There is more suspense in the assassin's life than in the death of Laura Chase, the novelist.
I would have given a 5 star to this book, if it was TRULY JUST the story of 'The Blind Assassin'.
