Content introduction:

Is this book Margaret? Atwoods masterpiece, based on a notorious crime in the 1840s, tells a complex but poetic story.

Through the switching of characters perspectives, the story has obtained a gorgeous fragmentation effect. Evil and dignity, tragedy and beauty coexist. Between reality and reality, a broad social picture in a specific era has been unfolded in front of us
