Bodily Harm

Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A powerful and brilliantly crafted novel from the author of Cat's Eye, Surfacing, Life Before Man, The Edible Woman, and Lady Oracle.  Bodily Harm is the story of Rennie Wilford, a young journalist whose life has begun to shatter around the edges.  Rennie Wilford flies to the Caribbean to recuperate, and on the tiny island of St. Antoine, she is confronted by a world where her rules for survival no longer apply.  By turns comic, satiric, relentless, and terrifying, Margaret Atwood's new novel is ultimately an exploration of the lust for power both sexual and political, and the need for compassion that goes beyond what we ordinarily mean by love .
