Stunning writing from Margaret Atwood in this beautiful, multi-faceted meditation on relationships, memory, and personal identity, as an unnamed female narrator travels with friends to an island in the remote Canadian wilderness in search of her father, who has disappeared without a trace. Perfectly paced and tiptoeing around the supernatural, this is my new favourite Atwood.
