Résumé
Iris Chase is a lonely old woman who reflects on her life and on that of her long-deceased sister, Laura. Laura's novel, The Blind Assassin, won a cult following in the pre-war years with its sexual frankness, science fiction segments,… and story-within-a-story technique. Spanning over decades, through war, turmoil and loss, the interconnected narratives spin a tale of devotion and deceit. Some strong language. 2000 Man Booker Prize. c2000.
