"I saw my life through this cat's eye marble."

Elaine, the painter, never thought that she would return to her hometown many years later.

What is waiting for her is not the joy of revisiting the old place, but the lingering "childhood ghost"-cordelia, her close friend and enemy, the maker of her endless pain.

Isolation, hostility and mental violence make Elaine's life worse than death; Only a compromise is needed, and the atrocities will escalate step by step.

Elaine, as an adult, still can't get out of the shadow of her childhood, and she can only escape from that dark time constantly.

In fact, as long as you fight back once, you can get rid of false friendship.

Margaret Margaret Atwood.

Born in 1939, 165438+ 10, 18, she is a well-deserved queen of Canadian literature and undoubtedly a popular candidate in Nobel Prize in Literature.

Atwood won more than 140 world literature prizes and created a series of different female images. Atwood has been leading the world literature since 1960s.

1988, that is, three years after The Handmaid's Story was published, at the age of 49, she chose to face the past world and write a true story with her own personal experience. As the daughter of an entomologist, she spent most of her childhood in the wild. At the age of six, she began to write poems, novels and plays. /kloc-at the age of 0/7, she publicly declared that writing was what she really wanted to do. By recalling the past, Cat's Eye not only puts the marginalized theme of female friendship in traditional novels in the center of the stage, but also deeply digs the hypocritical side of female friendship, revealing the scars of * * * in the process of women's growth with fatal accuracy.

. . A brief comment .

#

This novel is a typical female literature with delicate, pioneering and delicate language, which makes me very happy to read. Has the road we have traveled in the past become an insurmountable hurdle? It doesn't matter. We should follow the hero's footsteps to explore it.

#

All the advantages of Atwood are in this book: sly humor, mean observation and sharp prose style. Cat's Eye is a novel that will fascinate countless readers. It's hard not to love.

#

The feelings between women may indeed be far more complicated than love. The attraction between two women has nothing to do with lust and conquest. They must combine feelings such as appreciation, dependence and love, but also have complex elements such as competition, confrontation and jealousy.

#

When a Canadian woman was 49 years old, she faced the past world and stories with a fragmentary record. Fragments and objects show a sense of the times (such as cat's eye marbles, glass balls, egg cups, etc.). ) As many as documentaries. The core of the story revolves around women's friendship, childhood experience and memory trauma. The strong sense of the times brought by real experience is like a delicate set, which makes the stage more attractive and tense, and makes people (people who have experienced or understood the background of the times) more deeply immersed in it.

#

On the surface, it is bullying in the name of friendship. It is essentially about women's self-identity. It's not that "there is no pure friendship between women". It is in an environment of misogyny that women don't know what they should look like and what friendship between women should look like. What is more tragic is that everything the author experienced in the 1940s and 1950s still happens today.

#

Two men are better than one, at least it makes me feel better. I told myself that I like both, and I don't have to make up my mind about one of them if I fall in love with two men.

#

Having lunch with my ex-husband as a friend is just an end to the past. We have known each other for a long time. At my age, at our age, the years passed by * * * are more meaningful.

Quoted from four deadly belladonna /083

#

It is much easier to hate someone. If I hate them, I will know what to do. Hate is simple and clear, not slow, not like love.

Quoted from Five Stranders/1 13

Maybe the war is not over at all, but it is divided into pieces and scattered. Wars may break out all over the world at any time, and you can't get rid of them. The killing cannot stop. This is a profitable business.
