From the Publisher:
From the Inside Flap:
Controversial painter Elaine Risley returns from Vancouver for a retrospective of her work. Here, in Toronto, the city of her youth, she confronts the submerged layers of her past – her unconventional family, her eccentric and brilliant brother, the self-righteous Mrs. Smeath, and the two men Elaine later came to love in diverse and sometimes disastrous ways. But it is the enigmatic Cordelia, once her tormentor, then her best friend, whose elusive yet powerful presence in her life Elaine finally comes to understand. The realm of childhood and growing up, with its secrecies, cruelties, betrayals, and terrors, has never been so brilliantly evoked. By turns disquieting, humorous, compassionate, haunting and mordant, Cat's Eye is vintage Atwood.

Store Stamped. --- --- CONFESSIONS --- In college they were popular and privileged, an inseparable group of friends so golden that everyone wanted in. They knew one another's deepest secrets, sharing everything---including the vow of silence made when they found classmate Lily Vaughan murdered, her blood a scarlet stain against the snow on which she lay. . . . .Now, two decades later, the dark truth so long buried seems to be coming back to haunt them. How else to account for the escalating violence that attacks each in her most hidden place? None is safe; Quinn in her cloistered laboratory; Susie in her elegant New York apartment; Lis, wrestling with the production of her first play; Dinah, brutually stripped of the illusion of her secure suburban marriage. Their friendship lets them discover how each has been assaulted, but friendship can do nothing to stem the mounting nightmares. . . . .For Lily won't rest until the murderer pays. --- CAT'S EYE --- "Cat's Eye" is the story of Elaine Risley, a controversial painter who returns to Toronto, the city of her youth, for a retrospective of her art. Engulfed by vivid images of the past, she reminisces about a trio of girls who initiated her into the fierce politics of childhood and its secret world of friendship, longing, and betrayal. Elaine must come to terms with her own identity as a daughter, a lover, and artist, and woman - but above all she must seek release from her haunting memories. Disturbing, hilarious, and compassionate, "Cat's Eye, " is a breathtaking novel of a woman grappling with the tangled knots of her life. . . Seller Inventory # 24442
