Elaine Risley, a painter, returns to Toronto to find herself overwhelmed by her past. Memories of childhood - unbearable betrayals and cruelties - surface relentlessly, forcing her to confront the spectre of Cordelia, once her best friend and tormentor, who has haunted her for forty years.

Reading Atwood is always a full-body experience, and 'Cat's Eye' is by far one of her most viceral pieces. Skipping from the trials of youthful friendships, navigating the roles of men and women, and the tangles of romance at every age, this book will delight and enthrall. - Danielle (QBD)
